How to see a variable as float in expression view?

[ashesman]

Hi,

I can not seem to work out how to see variable values in the variables or expressions views as floating point numbers.  No matter what options I select in the right click menu.  Any ideas???

Hi Ashley,

Have you set the number format to 'default'?

Then it shows them in the 'default' format for each data type.

On that subject, you might find these article useful: https://mcuoneclipse.com/2016/01/23/show-floating-point-variable-bytes-in-eclipse-cdt/ and https://mcuoneclipse.com/2012/10/01/debugging-variables-in-hexadecimal-with-eclipse/ 

I hope this helps,

Great, thanks.  that seems to have worked.  I was right clicking on the array and selecting default format which did nothing.  But selecting default number format from the top right drop down menu made the floating point array display correctly.

Thanks...
