Type Node: Add float input to Type node and allow user to control visible decimal places

[andrewhake]

It is very useful to be able to connect any float attribute as an input to the Type node to be able to display that value, and have controls for how many decimal places are shown etc.

This is already implemented in the Random value mode so seems like it would be fairly straightforward to add a float input mode to the node with a few similar controls?

here is my custom Maya plugin that can convert float to string (you can control decimal places) then to the Type node. it's free. of cause, you can pay if you like.

Beautiful! Even have decimal plate attribute in the node. Perfection thank you.
