Maths Functions - Multiply & Add

Instructions on how to use mathematical logic to adapt numbers in KCM text blocks

:ffmultiply

There is now a new formatting function in KCM, :ffmultiply

When applied to a field it requires two parameters, an amount to multiply by and a precision to be used for rounding.

See below examples:

«Fieldset.field» - 5
«Fieldset.field:ffmultiply|0.25|2» - 1.25
«Fieldset.field:ffmultiply|0.25|0» - 1
«Fieldset.field:ffmultiply|0.25|10» - 1.250000000
«Fieldset.field:ffmultiply|3|2» - 15.00
«Fieldset.field:ffmultiply|3|0» - 15
«Fieldset.field:ffmultiply|3|10» - 15.000000000
«Fieldset.field:ffmultiply|3.14159265359|2» - 15.71
«Fieldset.field:ffmultiply|3.14159265359|0» - 16
«Fieldset.field:ffmultiply|3.14159265359|10» - 15.707963268

Note that although the function is just multiply, it can be used to divide numbers as well by multiplying by a number less than 1.

:ffadd

There is also a function for adding which can be used in the same way, :ffadd

See below example:

«Fieldset.field:ffadd|0.25|2» will add 0.25 and round to two decimal places.
