SysStats formats

I am using AveDesk and SysStats for the first time and I am having a little trouble getting my meters to format correctly. For example, to get a memory meter to show 5 free I set up a memory meter with a scale of 1 and metric of %free. In the overlays I set up a new overlay and I have it configured with the selector set at 1 but what do I put in for the format? I have %f but I get a number out to 6 places. I would like to get something like "65.3%", for example. I have tried the help pages and google but I am not getting it. Any help would be appreciated. Also, is there a listing anywhere of format options other than:

All of the numeric meters accept the same format sequence. E.g.:

%[flags][width].[precision][type]

Thanks

Thanks Judge. I have been working on some configs and this helped a lot. I have been trying to replicate a Samurize config to compare the resources used etc.

One other question. I want to put an Uptime meter on the desktop. I have the meter configured but it is in 000.00 minutes format. I would like to put it in hr:min:sec format. It is a numeric meter so it doesn't follow the time format. Is there a way to do this?

Thanks again for the help. I am making my way up the curve.

Judge, I do have uptime set as a PDH meter so I tried using the second method. If I add a meter overlay and set the script as the meter and the PDH as the selector, nothing shows ( I played around wth the x, y, length etc.) Should I be using a text overlay? If so, what would the format look like? I tried %f but that shows nothing. Thanks for you help.

I got it but it took a while. It is working beautifully now. I appreciate your time (and patience). Happy New Year.
