[note]

When you specify a precision for a "decimal" format type, it applies to the integer part instead of the fractional part of a decimal number:

<!-- tab: JavaScript-->
const decimalNumber = 1.234;

format: {
    type: "decimal",
    precision: 2
}
// 01.234

To apply the precision to the fractional part, use the "fixedPoint" format type:

<!-- tab: JavaScript-->
const decimalNumber = 1.234;

format: {
    type: "fixedPoint",
    precision: 2
}
// 1.23
