  How to add 0 in a counter to show 00, 01, 02… ?

  Hi everyone,

  I want to add a 0 to the counter when it’s going from 0 to 9.
  The result should be like this :
  %00, %01, %02… then %10, %11

  Struggling for hours now but I know you guys can help.

  Thank you so much.

  Hassan

  number = thisComp.layer("PERCENTAGE").effect("Percentage RIGHT")("Slider");
rounded = Math.round(number *100) /100;
number2 = "%"""+rounded.toFixed(1);

  Try this:

  num = thisComp.layer(“PERCENTAGE”).effect(“Percentage RIGHT”)(“Slider”);
  n = Math.round(num);
  (n < 10 ? “0” : “”) + n

  Thanks a lot Dan,
  You are a HERO.

  I changed the expression a little to add the % symbol like this :

  n= thisComp.layer(“PERCENTAGE”).effect(“Percentage_RIGHT”)(“Slider”);
  n2= Math.round(n *100) /100;
  “%”+(n2 < 10 ? “0” : “”) + n2
