Hi @smacdonald2008,

Thanks for you reply, but I didn't find anything about number formatting, could you point me that?

Thanks

Another option is to build your Sightly component to use Java. THen use Java to perform numeric fomatting on the value

https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/java/data/numberformat.html

See this community article:

That article will show you how to build a Sightly component with data-sly and Java.

Hi,

Thanks for your reply.

That's was my first idea, I'd just like to know if in Sightly itself there was already anything ready.

Thanks

In Sightly there is, for now, no formatting is available. You would need to implement this via Java/Javascript.
