Spatial Modeler Discussions

[JohnnieJ]

Hi. I've a file which has it's BL coordinates in it's file name. I want to use this info to reference the file, but in order to do that I need to add 1 to the latitude. I've got the value as a string; how do I convert this to an integer / float so that I can add 1? Thanks, Johnnie

And, of course, there's the From String operator, while I've been trying to bludgeon my way through with the Convert operator.

Just by the by, it would be handy in the help to have the list of suitable data types written out with those operators that have a free form field to add the data types. I always forget the format and have to go hunting for tables like this:

Parmaeter Suffix	Spatial Modeler Object Type
_File	IMAGINE.File
_Dir	IMAGINE.Directory
_Bool	IMAGINE.Bool
_Int	IMAGINE.Int
_Double	IMAGINE.Double
_Str	IMAGINE.String
_Scalar	IMAGINE.Scalar

From String operator to an IMAGINE.Double

Yup, I thought that should work as well...

Strings are weird and have to be dealt with differently.
