Our engineering manager asked me recently if we could change decimal place of certain characteristics on the report to either 3 places or 4 places, but not necessarily have the entire report be one or the other. Like some characteristics would be three places and some might be four places. So I told him that we can certainly do that. Then he asked if when we changed a characteristic from 4 places down to 3 places, does it round or truncate? I told him that I think that it rounds, but I'm not sure. Does anyone have any insight into this?
It rounds. DISPLAYPRECISION, toggle back and forth. Note that (at least in most versions) when creating a characteristic, it keeps the number of decimals that was active at the time you created it, adding the command after the fact does nothing.
