Civil Report Browser: problem with stationing format options

Hi Mikko,

The report XSL themselves can be edited to provide stations/units to whatever you want. This may be the best option for what you need currently.

Hi Mikko,

Yes. Currently the only available solution.

Thanks to Paul, my colleague, who provided few examples:

eg if the station is 10,000.000 then

<xsl:value-of select="format-number(number(Start/station/@externalStation),'##+###.000')"/>

will output 10+000.000

or

<xsl:value-of select="format-number(number(Start/station/@externalStation),'##km ###.000')"/>

will output 10km 000.000

or

<xsl:value-of select="format-number(number(Start/station/@externalStation),'#.000')"/>

will output 10000.000

Thanks Mark  and jpln !

I am not familiar with editing XSL and as I tried to put the above examples to the code, I couldn't get right results. As default, my code looks like this:

 <xsl:value-of select="cif:stationFormat(number(GeometryPoint/station/@externalStation), string(GeometryPoint/station/@externalStationName))"/>

I tried to put the "'##+###.000'" several different ways, but didn't have success. Below example:

<xsl:value-of select="cif:stationFormat(number(GeometryPoint/station/@externalStation),'##+###.000')"/>

What I am doing wrong here? It seems that xsl doesn't recognize hash symbol as a reference for the corresponding station values. 

Is there any "XSL for dummies" -guide specifically for OpenRoads/-Rail users?

Hi Mikko,

You are very close. Instead of:

<xsl:value-of select="cif:stationFormat(number(GeometryPoint/station/@externalStation),'##+###.000')"/>

change to:

<xsl:value-of select='format-number(number(GeometryPoint/station/@externalStation), "##+###.000")'/>

Thanks again, but still not showing right:

Just some misplaced symbols - updated previous post

More info on the format-number() function here: XSLT format-number() Function (w3schools.com) - This site is really good to learn generic XSLT
