Value Text Format Driver`1 component as seen in the Scene Inspector

ValueTextFormatDriver applies the value of a single source field to a text format string and drives the target string field. The source field is element 0 in the format string. Elements are defined by putting {} brackets around a number. Although the image shown and the field list below have the source field being a float, this component is generic, so any field type (that can be converted to a string) can be used.
