Scan Variant from string looses spaces when converting strings?

[alleBarbieri]

Hello everybody,

I noticed a strange behaviour of the "scan variant from string" openg function, in particular it seems that when the input is a variant associated to a string the "decoded string is truncated after the firs blank space.

Attached you can find a simple vi that illustrate this strange behaviour.

Could it be due to a bug in the openg "scan variant from string"? Or am I missing something?

Do you think it is something easy to fix?

Having a closer look at the "scan varian from string" I noticed that the strings atre threated as in the picture attached. I think a possible solution to solve my problem is to remove the "scan from string" and put the Input string directly to the variant output.

But I am sure the generality of the vi in this case would be compromised.

It looks like a bug to me too (unless I'm not understanding the Scan Variant from String function correctly).
