Hello,

i have read this several times but i can't find a solution. Probably i'm i little stupid. i only want to put a few blank spaces or strings in the number to mahe it more readable

Probably you can easily reformat the incoming caller-ID for example (...)(...)(....) -- a 10-digit US number to 1-\1-\2-\3, e.g. number like 1234567890 to 1-123-456-7890. More difficult for Germany, where numbers and area codes are different lengths, you must create too many rules.

there is no possibility to create a variable rule? but if i create for every areacode as many rules as there are possibilities of lengths it should work?

i think it is annoying to read a 12 or 13 digit number in 1 block.

(.*) means one or more digits, can obviously be used as last field
You can use rules like to make numbers more readable:
49521(...)(.*) to 0521-\1-\2
4989(...)(.*) to 089-\1-\2
4930(...)(.*) to 030-\1-\2
and so on.
Last rule may be (order is important):
49(...)(...)(.*) to 0\1-\2-\3
to handle all other cases.

Amazing! Thank you so much!

Keep in mind that display limitations, on some devices, may cause the number to scroll off the screen if there are too many characters. Some devices may also add their own digit separators
