Dan and Marcus (from another thread related to this),

I'm trying to do what you say, but I get an error when using
*"{0:.3e}".format* in the formatter field. The default value (0) is now
formatted properly but it won't ever update and in terminal I get the
following error

Exception in thread Thread-8:
Traceback (most recent call last):

    m = abs(n)

I also get this error whenever I double click the QT GUI Label in question:

Traceback (most recent call last):

line 72, in _update_gui

    return str(template(namespaces=kwargs))

line 130, in respond
  File "cheetah_DynamicallyCompiledCheetahTemplate_1462212927_77_69202.py",
line 87, in truncate
IndexError: tuple index out of range

Am I doing something wrong?
