Hi guys, we have a problem with the way Stimul renders right aligned values when bracket negatives are used.
Eg:
Code: Select all
Code Value
ABC 1.3
XYZ (1.3)
MNP 2.5
the ) is aligned with the 3 above it.
it should ignore the ) when it calculates the alignment and add it afterward.

Good day Vital.
Thanks for the update. It is not a problem at the moment. It is just something we noticed while compiling a test report.
If our client needs the numbers to be formatted using (n) we will let you know.
Thank you.

Hello, Pilgrim.
Unfortunately this kind of alignment is not supported in GDI+.
Also existing mechanisms of GDI+ methods of output do not allows to find out output position exactly.
Our possible solution would look as a weak workaround. That is why such output as in Excel (GDI was used there) is not accessible in GDI+.
As the possible solution is too complex and is not universal, we need a brainstorming session how it could be achieved. If you have any idea, please let us know.
Thank you.
