Trying to change to 1 decimal float

Hi. I made several Float columns and set the decimals to 2, however due to recent feedback in our project I wanna change it back to 1 decimal only (0,3 for example)

 

I changed the "Decimal places" option (shown in the first screenshot) to 1, however when I type in new data in the column, it still changes my 0,1 to 0,10 (see second screenshot)

 

What am I doing wrong here?

    Hey Ahmed,

     

    I've changed all the columns a couple of times now but even tho it's set to 1, it keeps putting 2 decimals.

    Hello, @Shoekstra, when you first create the column and set the decimal value, for some reason, it will be resetted to the default which 2 decimal places. re-edit the column and set the value back to 1 and it should work.
