Table decimal places

Table decimal places

Table decimal places

(OP)
Hi,
I have drawn up a table with repeat regions, but i cant find a way to change the number of decimal places shown.
It seems to pick its own for each column and the number it picks is not the full amount for the parameter its displaying (ie my parameter has 3 dec places, yet it shows only 2 in the table)
any help would be much appreciated

RE: Table decimal places

Try putting this after the value string: [.X], where X is number of decimal places. I use this for displaying the wieght on the drawing, &weight[.1].

that definately works for dimensions and stuff, but i forgot to mention that im using parameters from a family table and so the string is (report sym) fam.inst.param.value

It should therefore take the decimal places from the family table but it doesnt, nor can i seem to change it.

RE: Table decimal places

Set the correct number of decimals you want in the model's dimension and the table's driving dimensions will follow.  i thought there was a config.pro option you could set that would control this as well but i can't remember it.  attempt you suggestion and see what happens.
