Hello,
How can I limit the lengt of strings that I print out ?
text1 contains a sting of length 7 to 25, but I want to print a maximum of 18 charactes.
I have tried the following, but it does not work for text1:
text1='012345678901234567890123456789';
text2='01234567';
sprintf('%-18s',text1)
sprintf('%-18s',text2)
In the end it should look like a table.
Best regards
Christian

text1='012345678901234567890123456789';
text2='01234567';
text1(19:end)=''
text2(19:end)=''

This can be used in an expression without modifying the variable. Also it can be used with string() objects as well
