Convert F Temperature to Centigrade AND round off to 1 decimal place
I’m trying take a value from a slider control for a Fahrenheit temperature, convert it to Celsius and round it off to 1 decimal place. Converting the temperature is no problem using this formula:
value = (PICKWHIP TO FARENHEIT SLIDER)-32)*(5/9);
but it returns 12 decimal places (or none if it is an even number). I’ve tried several expressions from this forum to round off to 1 decimal place, but they always return incorrect math results. Any suggestions on how to proceed?

If it’s for a text layer, you could do it like this:
s = effect(“Slider Control”)(“Slider”);
((s-32)*(5/9)).toFixed(1);If not, you could try this:
s = effect(“Slider Control”)(“Slider”);
Math.round((s-32)*(5/9)*10)/10;Dan

The first one worked perfectly. Thank you very much for the help.
