Results Slide Percent no Decimal Points
All,
I have a results slide which pulls in data from several other results slide.
The problem is that the results percentage is showing the percentage with decimal points. From a cosmetic point of view I would like the percentage rate to be rounded up or down to the nearest full number.
Is there a way to do this?
Thank you in advance
Rich
Hello everyone,
I have some great news to share! We just released another update for Storyline 360. In Update 112, we’ve included essential fixes and new features. One of the new features we’ve included is:
- Simplify reporting with a built-in option that rounds quiz scores to whole numbers.
Launch the Articulate 360 desktop app on your computer to take advantage of this update, and click the Update button next to Storyline 360. You’ll find our step-by-step instructions here.
Please let me know if you need additional help.

Thanks @jack Keena and all those who provided clues along the way to get it to work. I've used the JavaScript option under SL360.
I too would love to see this built into the SL software. I had 2 variables that needed rounding on the results page. Straight up, this should be taken care of by SL.
I'm really surprised Storyline still doesn't round up percentages by default, even with the requests for this feature going back 6-7 years.
It's an industry standard in elearning courses, and is an issue raised again and again by our many clients.
Hi Karen - It would appear this is still an issue.
The previous fixes mentioned do no seem to work anymore. I think it has some thing to do with SL360 not allowing the user to edit built in variables such as Results.ScorePercent.The easy solution I have found is to use the java script mentioned on page 1 of this thread but you have to make a custom variable first, which you set its value to that of Results.ScorePercent then modify the new variable with the javascript.
I have attached a grab of my triggers from SL and below is the javascript I have used:
var player = GetPlayer();
var score = player.GetVar("ResultsScorePercentRounded");
var n = score.toFixed(0);
player.SetVar("ResultsScorePercentRounded", n);I hope this helps anyone else who comes across this issue down the line.
Thanks @jack Keena - I had this come up today for a client and this works perfectly in SL360!
Thanks for the update, Teresa. Please feel free to reach out via the link shared above and one of our support engineers can dive in for you.
I'd share a link to this conversation as well so that they will be all up-to-date on the solutions covered here as well as Mike's solution.
Hi Tony,
I understand.
Are you running into trouble with this as well? Please feel free to share your project file with our support engineers to investigate what's happening. You can share it privately by uploading it here. It will be deleted when troubleshooting is complete.
Hi Leslie, I used Mike's Decimal word document so I did not use javascript. So it would be awesome if you can take a look. Mike's decimal document is about three posts up from my downloads. So would like to see if someone can troubleshoot for sure. Thanks Teresa
Hi Leslie,
Sorry, but i call that a cop out.
If JS functionality is not supported, why is it there?
I wouldn't expect you to support the actual JS code, but how it works?TC
Hi Teresa,
Thanks for popping back in with an update. There has been a lot of conversation here, so were you using a JavaScript solution? If so, the JavaScript coding is not something our team is able to assist with, but if I've misunderstood and you're running into something else we could take a look for sure.
If the latter is the case, then with your permission, I'd like you to share your project file with our support engineers to investigate what's happening. You can share it privately by uploading it here. It will be deleted when troubleshooting is complete.
Hey Liz,
I'm not sure if Teresa was able to get this sorted, but it looks like Mike shared a solution above.
I'm not sure if they are still subscribed to the conversation here, but you are welcome to reach out to the users directly via the 'Contact Me' option on the user profile if you do not hear back soon.
Hi Teresa,
I am wondering if you were able to get your rounded score in Articulate 360. I have followed the instructions in all the threads and checked all your triggers and variables.
Technically I have done it correctly but I cannot get the score to display without the decimal places.
Best regards
Liz
Unfortunately I was unable to get it to work in 360 only Storyline 2. Would be nice to see if Articulate can look at Storyline 2 and see how it can work in 360. Or it would be nicer if the feature request was approved as I am no javascript person that is for sure. Good luck.
Leslie, it looks like no community member was able to have an opportunity to check my 360 version, is this something you can look at and see how the SL2 works and 360 is not working...did I miss something. I just kind of gave up worrying about it, but if there is a fix that would be great.
