FORMAT VALUES¶
Applies a printf-style format string to all scalar values within a Define Table, normalizing how numbers or strings are displayed. Use this worker when you need consistent column-value formatting before downstream reporting or curve-pair operations.
When to use¶

Inputs¶
| Label | ID | Type | Default | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Define Table | dt1 | define_table | — | Input Define Table containing value-and-curve pairs whose scalar values will be reformatted; leave unconnected to pass through an empty table. | |
| Format | format | scalar | %10s | Printf-style format string applied to each scalar value in the table (e.g. ‘%10s’ for a 10-character right-aligned string, ‘%.4f’ for 4 decimal places); defaults to ‘%10s’. |
Outputs¶
| Label | ID | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Define Table | define_table | define_table | Define Table with all scalar values reformatted according to the supplied format string, ready for downstream workers. |
