Hello,

Id iike to show my numbers like they are shown in the backend using NumericField. Is there a way to get that without string-manipulation?

Thanks in advance and best wishes

Hi,

When outputting a decimal number in a template you can use the .Nice function to format the number.

For example: $MyDecimalNumber.Nice

Int numbers have a .Formatted function which does a similar thing, example: $MyIntNumber.Formatted

Both of these will add the thousands separator and for decimals the decimal point will be included too.
