I want to put decimal when reach more than 1000 (1K), how should I put it?

Try this:

numSlider= effect("Slider Control")("Slider").value.toFixed(2);
numSlider.replace(/\B(?=(\d{3})+(?!\d))/g,",");

Edit: Sorry – I misread the question–for some reason I thought you wanted to add commas to large numbers.

Maybe like this?

n = effect("Slider Control")("Slider").value;
if (n >= 1000000){
  Math.floor(n/1000000) + n.toFixed(2).substr(-3) + "M";
}else{
  Math.floor(n/1000) + n.toFixed(2).substr(-3) + "K"
}

Still not quite right. Should be closer:

n = effect("Slider Control")("Slider").value;
if (n >= 1000000){
  Math.floor(n/1000000) + n.toFixed(2).substr(-3) + "M";
}else if (n >= 1000){
  Math.floor(n/1000) + n.toFixed(2).substr(-3) + "k"
}else{
  n.toFixed(2);
}

I would leverage Javascript’s own method for formatting numbers like this:

numSlider= effect("Slider Control")("Slider").value;
new Intl.NumberFormat('en-US', {notation: 'compact', maximumFractionDigits: 2}).format(numSlider);

A possible downside is that it uses rounding and not floor, so 1599 is 1.6K and 1609 is 1.61K

The positive thing is that it automatically does K, M, B, T and if you select a different language/region, it will use the correct for that region.

For example use ‘ms’ instead of ‘en-US’ and it will be K, J, B, T for Malaysian ‘juta’

use ‘fr-FR’ and you’ll get k M Md Bn (the French convention) but use ‘fr-CA’ and you get k M G T (the Canadian convention)
