Removing Leading Zero

  • 1.  Removing Leading Zero

    Posted Thu February 09, 2023 01:27 PM

    Hello.

    I am trying to remove the leading zero from the standardized estimates of my CFA. At the moment, only negative values do not display a leading zero, and I am having trouble finding out why this is/trying to remove the other leading zeroes. 

    Thank you for your time and assistance.

    There is a preference setting on whether to display leading zeros or not in pivot tables.
    It's in Edit > Options > General.

    Hello ,

    Thank you very much for your quick response.

    I have tried finding the General settings but have been unsuccessful. The Edit tab does not have an Options nor a General. Is there another place I can look for these preference settings? For further information, I am using AMOS v28, and I am trying to remove the leading zeroes from the parameters on my CFA figure.

    Thank you again for your time.

    Edit > Options

    General is the first tab:

    Hello, 

    Thank you for your help. I have attached an image of my Edit settings, where there is no Option selection. I apologize if I am not properly explaining myself. I am new to the program.

    Could you tell me what program this is? i don't recognize that as IBM SPSS Statistics.

    The app is "IBM SPSS Amos 28 Graphics". It is a download license I received through school.

    Sorry, the IBM SPSS Statistics program is the one I am referring to, not AMOS.

    I don't know of a way to format output in AMOS. I'll forward that question on to someone else.

    I'm very sorry, but there is not a way inside AMOS to do this. That comes from the author of the program.

    Please ask the author (James Arbuckle, I assume) to build this back in! I've been using Amos since the early 90s and this has, until recently, been possible via interface properties. Not sure why it is no longer possible to do this!
