Wind.vecdir.ordinal_compass without format

[Dani Talens]

Hi,

Is it not possible to apply formatting to the $day.wind.vecdir.ordinal_compass? 

I can apply format to $day.wind.vecdir with formatting options. For example, $day.wind.vecdir.format(format_string="%6.0f",$NONE,add_label=False).

Thanks,

[Tom Keffer]

I'm not sure what you're looking for. Does option "directions" not satisfy your needs?

Hello Tom,

What I would like is to be able to apply the "format" and "ordinal_compass" options at the same time. When testing it only shows the ordinal points but does not apply format. For e ample, $day.wind.vecdir.ordinal_compass.format(format_string="%6.0f") shows ordinal points but not apply format.

Thanks,

The "ordinal_compass" is the optional formatting. It requires no format string. 

If you want both, then you must specify both. With optional formatting for the wind direction, it would look something like this:

$current.windDir.ordinal_compass ($current.windDir.format("%6.0f"))

This results in 

NE (45.0º)

Does the format instruction go into skin.conf under 

[[[windDir]]]

   $current.windDir.ordinal_compass ($current.windDir.format("%6.0f"))

No. The snippet

$current.windDir.ordinal_compass ($current.windDir.format("%6.0f"))

is used in a Cheetah template.
