Hi All,

I was happily working on my network map, and then I added a new DCI COntainer with two DCIs and it worked fine. I went back to add some text to the Format String, and now the Map is broken with the error below.

What happened?

Hello,

This is my first post, so I hope I am clear.

I having problems with formatting the DCI Containers on a network map. Running NetXMS 2.2.10 on Ubuntu.

I am reading these:

• https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/util/Formatter.html#syntax
• https://track.radensolutions.com/issue/NX-501
• https://www.netxms.org/documentation/adminguide/visualisation.html?highlight=visual

It seems that most common formatters would include:
    %s - insert a string
    %d - insert a signed integer (decimal)
    %f - insert a real number, standard notation

And we can see from the documentation:

QuoteFor each Data Source can be configured: Data collection item, name, format string(like "Text: %.4f"), in case of table DCI also column and instance

So, my problem is that if I select a DCI, the Map displays the integer with 6 decimal places, and I want to reduce that to two. However ANY format string items do not work.

E.g. putting the suggested %.4f returns an <INVALID FORMAT> (%.4f), using %d returns the same. Switching the DCI itself between string and integer makes no difference.

Please can somebody help me understand what I an doing wrong?

Many thanks.

Alex
