  • Issue with GridPlus: Unable to Validate and Format Decimal Numbers up to 6 Digits

    I am encountering an issue when attempting to display numeric values with more than two decimal places in the Grid Plus Component Plug-In (version 1.1.0).

    When I apply the number formatting option within the grid column configuration, the display is automatically limited to two decimal places.

    If I remove the formatting, all decimal places are displayed correctly (for example, 2.34567); however, in that case, the values are no longer displayed with comma formatting.

     

    Expected Behavior:

     

    Could you please advise how to configure Grid Plus to:

    • Allow and validate decimal numbers with up to six digits of precision.
    • Display these values with comma formatting (e.g., 123,456.789)?

    Please see the attached screenshots:

    1. With and without formatting in configuration:
      The grid contains two columns  one with formatting applied in the configuration and another without.
      • The formatted column automatically rounds values when more than two decimal places are entered.
      • The unformatted column correctly displays up to six decimal places but does not apply comma formatting to the values.
    2. Formatting up to six decimals:
      I attempted to modify the configuration to allow more than two decimal places, but it resulted in an error.
