Duration.ToText format example

Hello,

 

I want to use the format optionnal field in Duration.ToText() function in order to have a "days.hours:minutes" format (i.e. remove seconds and, above all, fractionnal seconds).

But I cannot find an example on to write the format.

In the Microsoft documentation, there is no use of this optionnal field!

 

Could you give me examples of how to do this?

Have you got another solution to solve this issue?

Thank you for your help
