Radix always visible when numeric is not decimal

[SteenSchmidt]

Hi,

I suggest that radix is always visible when the numeric display format is other than decimal. Is this number decimal for instance?:

Well, it was hex:

  ... -> ... 

Basically you'd know that if there isn't a radix visible, then the number is decimal. It should still be possible to show radix for decimal numbers as well. This should be the case for both constants and controls/indicators.

Just one of those little things that would enforce a minimum of documentation.

Cheers,

Steen

I was certain this already existed, and that I had Kudo'd it.  Turns out it does exist, but I had not Kudo'd it until now.

Thanks Darin! I even searched for "radix" but somehow missed that entry.

I've kudoed the other one, and my entry here can be deleted then. Sorry to disturb.
