FWIW: the line

Code:

index = template('{series_index:0>2s}');

can be replaced with

Code:

idx = field('series_index');
index = contains(idx, '\.', format_number(idx, '05.2f'), format_number(idx, '02d'));

which has much better performance and deals with floating point series indices.

If you want all series indices to be the same length, in the example's case 5 (nn.nn), then you could use

Code:

format_number(field('series_index'), '05.2f')
