  Counter rounding and then no rounding?

  Posted by Duane Walters on April 16, 2020 at 1:36 pm

  I’m using this expression as a counter, and I want it to round while counting, but not round upon finishing (so it ends on 3.9). Any suggestions? I thought this would be easier than it’s ended up being :/

  timeA = 0; timeB = 1; Math.round(linear(time, timeA,timeB, 0, 3.9))+'%';

  Something like this maybe:

  timeA = 0;
  timeB = 1;
  val = Math.round(linear(time, timeA,timeB, 0, 3.9));
  (val > 3 ? 3.9 : val)+’%’

  Thanks Dan, that’s an elegant solution!

  By chance do you know a better way to achieve the same thing?
  I always like to see if there’s a better way of achieving my messes.

  Thanks again.
