I am trying to display a percentage of an item., like :
~ Remaining Inventory % = The remaining inventory/capacity percentage of 250 items.
~ Remaining Inventory Count = The remaining inventory/capacity number (this would display the remaining capacity left.
(which will be 250 - Current Item Count)
but I can’t do the expression of "250 -" before adding a data to calculate the current item count that I have.
for the remaining inventory % im getting "-96.4" instead of just "96.4"
and for remaining inventory count I can’t get any data properly because I can;t add 250 - before the data.
There’s a few option
A) add *-1 at the end of your expression, this will turn it into positive
B) Use Arbitrary text:format as number (set 250 un your arbitrary text)
C) Use a custom state type number and set it by default at 250, use this custom state value first
which is "Search for items:count / 250 * 100" which currently gives me -96.4 instead of 96.4.
96.4 is the un-used inventory and 3.6% is used inventory.
The first thing you should do is activate parenthesis feature (in settings, versions)
You should be good after that to set correctly your expression by placing each part in the correct order (for that ,select the relevant “more” after parenthesis)
Also, in your screenshot, you didn’t do * -1 (this is what will make your negative a positive number)
