The custom dash that I created is showing certain values that really should have one decimal place shown but instead is rounded off to whole numbers, such as voltage reading as 14V instead of 14.1V. However on the Drive and Repair pages it does show certain data with one decimal place. Examples are MPG, Voltage and Fuel rate (GPH). Question: is the displayed data format controllable by the user, and if so, how? (Certain other data is better rounded off to a whole number, such as Boost Pressure and Oil Pressure so this question does not suggest changing all data display).

Mark- Thx for prompt response. I’ve looked at the Getting Started document for any mention of Decimal Places and also looked at the Customize Gauges for Decimal Places option and am coming up empty handed. Is it possible that an earlier version of the software included that option but the current version doesn’t have it? FYI I’m running version 5.0.3 on an iPad with a new 9 pin adapter with a 6 to 9 converter. Coach is a 2003 Monaco Dynasty with a 2001 build Cummins ISL with a J1708 port.

Which gauges are you trying to set the decimal places? It's on the Customize Gauges page towards the bottom between 'Show Unit of Measure' and 'Font Attributes'.

I looked at 2 examples- Voltage and Average Fuel Economy- and the available selections in that part of the options are, in this order:
Location Show unit of measure Font attributes Font sizes Spacings etc.
Nothing for decimal place options.
Am I on the wrong page?

An update to my previous post from last night: As an experiment, I downloaded a dash from the BF site (BMiller custom dash ver3) and DO see the decimal place setting option. My custom dash I’ve been working with was created from scratch using version 5.0.3 and does NOT show the decimal place setting option. Is there something I need to do to show that setting option?

Bring up your dash that doesn't show the decimal places, confirm that you don't see the option, and then send me the App's event log (Settings/Send the Event Log).

There is a bug in versions (5.0.0 - 5.0.3) that disables decimal places if you add a gauge using a template that does have any decimal places (eg. RPM). That is what happened to your gauges. I've attached your dash that is fixed. You'll need to unzip it and then import it using the Customize Dash Import option.
