Good evening.
It seems to be a piece of cake to output the "+" in front of coordinate BUT when it is greater than 0.
The question is how to make post processor to output "positive zero" (+0.0) ?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi i0wa
Try using this code
[format "%+.3f" $mom_pos(1)]

Change $mom_pos(1) to whatever is needed
This should output +0.0 and always put a + or - sign as required
The .3f fixes to 3 decimal places
Hope that helps

Cheers
Steve Griffiths :)
