Format in template

Beta

Hi,

 

I want to create a macro with template inside to process a large number of entities.

My output format is similar to the picture below.

I know that it is possible to use field() command to write data to ASCII file.

However, I don't know how to write it in the same format in the picture with negative, positive number and exactly 6 number after comma.

Could anyone help me with this, Thanks

I don't know how to control exactly 6 number after comma within a output template yet.

But if this's your indispensable requirement, you can write directly in TCL script.

How about 'large number of entities'? 100k? 1000k? 10000k?

Yes, to control format of data you should use tcl

example set fx [format %10.6f $x]

 

for template, you can use *realprecision(6) to control 6digits after dot of reals, and to print them out even if they are zero, using *compressreal(0)
