I have a label that is using a tagname as its text. I want to parse it so the first two characters are not displayed.
For example.
My tagname is e_XXXXXXXX. I want the label to disregard the “e_” and only display the “XXXXXXXX”
any easy ideas?

Not sure if you’re doing this in an expression or scripting, but a simple substring function call should do it for you.
the expression I am using is:
"Diverter Valve - " + {Root Container.instanceName}
{Root Container.instanceName} is e_XXXXXXXXXX
I just want the XXXXXXXX
I cant seem to get the syntax correct.
"Diverter Valve - " + substring{Root Container.instanceName,2}
Syntax error on Token “BOUND CONST”
line 1 char 62.
I have tried several syntax combinations and cant seem to find the correct way.
Nevermind,
I got it.
thanks for pointing me in the right direction
