Here is my code, with values.score as the integer that gets updated in the task: <item scoretext> /1 = format ("Score: %i", values.score) </item> <text scoretext> /items = scoretext / position = (80%, 5%) / size = (50,50) </text> When I display scoretext, all it does is show the string "Score: %i" rather than replacing %i with the integer. Am I supposed to use the format function in a different way? Tags format strings

You simply do: <text mytext> / items = ("Score: <%values.score%>") </text>
