counter with slider and percentage

[Dan Ebberts]

This should work:


slider = effect("Slider Control")("Slider");
numDecimals = 0;
commas = false;
dollarSign = false;
percentSign = true;
s = slider.value.toFixed(numDecimals);
prefix = "";
suffix = "";
if (s[0] == "-"){
prefix = "-";
s = s.substr(1);
}
if(dollarSign) prefix += "$";
if(percentSign) suffix = "%";
if (commas){
decimals = "";
if (numDecimals > 0){
decimals = s.substr(-(numDecimals + 1));
s = s.substr(0,s.length - (numDecimals + 1));
}
outStr = s.substr(-s.length, (s.length-1)%3 +1);
for (i = Math.floor((s.length-1)/3); i > 0; i--){
outStr += "," + s.substr(-i*3,3);
}
prefix + outStr + decimals + suffix;
}else{
prefix + s + suffix;
}

Thanks Dan! This will be very useful with the option to use dollar sign or %.

Hi. i have animation counting from 0 % to 100 %
with this code i have 100,0 %. How to remove decimate and live only integer on the end of animation?

[Dan Ebberts]

You shouldn’t have a decimal point with the code I posted above. Did you make any changes to it? Please post what you have.

hi,
first i used this code: Math.round(effect(“Slider Control”)(“Slider”)) + ” %”

…but this expression count with points. I don`t know if it`s any possibility to add commas to it or not.

Than i tried to paste Your expression but the counts are integer, not decimate. I changed the values in it, but the animation are other than i expected

[Michal Swarowski]

this is my screen. on the end of animation i have decimate not integer. I don`t know how to change this

Try simplifying the expression to this:

slider = effect(“slider control”)(“slider”);
“” + Math.floor(slider) + “%”

You can also use Counter Preset to create any Counter and running numbers animation, with any kind of symbol or character (%,$ etc.). I hope you will find it useful. you can get it here:
