Just wondering if anyone knows how to remove a positive (+) sign from a float number? e.g +0.47 to 0.47

I've been using the "fromsymbol" function to remove the negative (-) sign, but cant seem to find anything to remove positive.

Without removing the (+) sign, number boxes, sliders, etc. wont read the number.

Someday, I may learn regexp, but in the mean time here's a brute force way:

Where are the + signs coming from, anyway?
