Decimal Places in Numbering with Outlines

I would like to have my outline follow a numbering pattern similar to the below example. ( I am using arrows to show the indents)
5.00
5.01
---->5.011
---->5.012
---->5.013
---->5.015
---->5.016
-------->5.0161
-------->5.0162
---->5.017
---->5.018
5.02
I am unable to achieve this by using numbers or tiered numbers in the list tab in the inspector. It won't let me start with a number containing a decimal.
Can I hard code the numbers in the outline or start with decimal number a different way? Or am I stuck manually creating and formatting the outline.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Alex
Welcome to the forum.
Unfortunately Pages can't do what you want. So you are stuck manually creating and formatting the outline.

Decimal places in numbers (ipad)

How to stop numbers giving me a number to 10-12 decimal places! I have a figure in column A which is taken away from column B and it leaves 8.50 ( for example) instead I get '8.9999995689995'
Incredibly frustrating! I know it's going to be something simple but I just can't find the right button!

Touch the result cell, touch the "paintbrush" icon, touch "Format", touch "Number", and change "Decimal" to 2 (use the small arrows to raise or lower the number or decimals).

Convert amount with four decimal places to amount with two decimal places

Hi,
for specific reasons we have set the prices to four decimal places. However, in an invoice the staff needs to see all prices with two decimal places. Therefore I have created new user-defined fields which should show the rounded values However, I have not yet found the right formatted search that outputs the value with two decimal places including currency symbol.
The statement
SELECT $[$38.20.NUMBER]
outputs the value with two decimal places which is fine, but it does not contain the currency.
The statement
SELECT $[$38.20.0]
outputs both value and currency, but the value still has four decimal places as the original price.
And the statement
SELECT CAST($[$38.20.NUMBER] AS VARCHAR(20)) + $[$38.20.CURRENCY]
outputs a value with even six decimal places.
Did anyone already have the same problem???
Or does anyone have any idea???
Thanks and regards
Corinna

Hi again,
the value should be displayed in a user-defined field of the screen.
The result of the query
SELECT $[$38.20.NUMBER]
has already two decimal places, so that I do not need a round here. But the currency is missing.
When I add the round function to the query
SELECT $[$38.20.0]
it does unfortunatly result in an error.
Any ideas????
Thanks so much in advance!

Download amount value without decimal place but element with decimal place

Hi all,
to display the amount without decimal places in classic report, i can use this way which is wa_wrshb NO-ZERO CURRENCY wa__waers.
may i know,
1) how to display amount in ALV where amount value (which using dmshb/wrshb) has no decimal place like JPY?
2) what should i do if i want to download the amount value which field using dmshb or wrshb that the value has no decimal place like JPY?
Thanks

Hello,
You can display the ALV output according to the decimal point in the currency.
When creating the field catlog for the amount field add the currency parameter also.
wa_fieldcat-fieldname     = <amount_field>.
wa_fieldcat-tabname       = <output_table>.
wa_fieldcat-seltext_l     = <column_heading>.
wa_fieldcat-outputlen     = p_olen.
wa_fieldcat-currency      = wa_waers.              " This will work same as CORRENCY wa_waers

Lists: multi-decimal place numbering?

Can Pages do multi-decimal place list numbering, for example:
1.22.03
1.22.04
1.23.01
1.23.02

The example you show is just what I'm trying to do. Can you explain how to enable the multi-decimal structure. When I look at the bullet and numbering options, I only get numbers in the first location.
I get:
1. Topic
1. First subtopic
2. Second subtopic
3. Third subtopic
2. Second Topic
1. Subtopic
2. Subtopic
What I want:
1. Topic
1.1. First subtopic
1.2. Second subtopic
1.3. Third subtopic
2. Second Topic
2.1. Subtopic
2.2. Subtopic

Displaying all numbers with 2 decimal places

Hi All,
We have a requirement in our code where we want that all numbers must be diplayed with 2 decimal places.
Eg: If a number is 21.234 then it should be displayed as 21.23
If a number is 21.289 then it should be displayed as 21.28
If a number is 21 then it should be displayed as 21.00
Can anyone please help me how to do it in a SQL query.

Hi, Shruti,
This shows a couple of things you can do:
COLUMN     trnc     FORMAT     999999.99
WITH     got_x     AS
     SELECT     empno / 1000     AS x
     FROM     scott.emp
SELECT     x
,     TO_CHAR (x,            '999999.99')     AS tc
,     TO_CHAR (TRUNC (x, 2), '999999.99')     AS trnc_tc
,     TRUNC (x, 2)                              AS trnc
FROM     got_x
;Output:
`        X TC         TRNC_TC          TRNC
     7.369       7.37       7.36       7.36
     7.499       7.50       7.49       7.49

     7.698       7.70       7.69       7.69
     7.782       7.78       7.78       7.78
     7.788       7.79       7.78       7.78
     7.839       7.84       7.83       7.83

     7.902       7.90       7.90       7.90
     7.934       7.93       7.93       7.93Column x is the number, as SQL*Plus displays it by default. Note there are as many digits after the decimal point as are needed.
Column tc shows how TO_CHAR can format the number, with exactly 2 digits after the decimal point. This automatically rounds the number to the nearest multiple of .01, so on the first row (for example) 7.369 gets displayed as 7.37.
user11272043 wrote:
... If a number is 21.289 then it should be displayed as 21.28You (apparantly) always want the number rounded toward 0, so column tc isn't quite what you want.
Column trnc_tc is exacly what you requested, with the numbr rounded toward 0 (when any rouning is necessry) and 2 digits after the decimal point.
Column tc is also exactly what you requested, but it uses SQL*Plus formatting rather than SQL. Also, column trnc is a NUMBER, while column trnc_tc is a VARCHAR2, because TO_CHAR, as its name hints, returns a VARCHAR2.
The SQL*Plus command
SET   NUMFORMAT 999999.99changes the default format for all number columns. If you use this, you can override it for individual columns by using TO_CHAR (since it returns a VARCHAR2, the NUMFORMAT doesn't apply),or a COLUMN command. Also, if you use SET NUMFORMAT 999999.99, you'll still have to explicitly TRUNC every number, or else 21.289 will come out as 21.29, not 21.28.

Displaying results with a decimal place of two. Forcing decimal place.

Hi there,
Im writing a simple calculation device.
You input one digit and press one of two buttons to multiply it by a certain number and then the result is displayed. The result is displyed hiding the result of the button you didn't press and visa versa.
I am having a problem displaying the result with a constant two decimal place.
I am using strings and thus don't know how to do this.
Here is my code:
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
//restrict the input textfield to only numbers
txtinput.restrict = "0-9";
//restrict the input textfield to only two characters
txtinput.maxChars = 6;
// event listeners
btnW.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, WHandler);
btnC.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, CHandler);
btnW.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, hideC);
btnC.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, hideW);
//functions
function WHandler (e:MouseEvent):void
          //white calculation
          var answerW:Number = Number(txtinput.text) * Number(0.90);
          txtWResult.text = answerW.toString();
function CHandler (e:MouseEvent):void
          //colour calculation
          var answerC:Number = Number(txtinput.text) * Number(0.99);
          txtCResult.text = answerC.toString();
function hideC (e:MouseEvent):void
          //Hide colour result
          txtCResult.visible = false;
          txtWResult.visible = true;
function hideW (e:MouseEvent):void
          //Hide white result
          txtWResult.visible = false;
          txtCResult.visible = true;
After having a look online I have found these two resources:
http://helpx.adobe.com/flash/kb/rounding-specific-decimal-places-flash.html
and
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11469321/decimals-to-one-decimal-place-in-as3
But I am confused when combining these techniques with strings.
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Thanks in advance
Mr B

Use the toFixed() method of the Number class instead of the toString() method. The result of it is a String with the number of decimal places you specify.
          var answerW:Number = Number(txtinput.text) * Number(0.90);
          txtWResult.text = answerW.toFixed(2);
          var answerC:Number = Number(txtinput.text) * Number(0.99);
          txtCResult.text = answerC.toFixed(2);

Pages rounding up numbers in a .doc file to 2 decimal places

Hello, I have a problem, with Pages (3.4) on OS 10.7.5...
When I go to open a .Doc file, Pages seems to round up some numbers to 2 decimal places. I did find another thread which dealt with this problem inside of Tables, but I am not using tables in this document.... another problem is that the new rounded up number is not editable in Pages once the document is open. e.g.
In word/open office I see the figure (which is in fact a series of dates - i did not write this document btw)
12.12.24.1.13
in Pages is only see
.13
and this .13 is totaly un-editable and unselectable.
Can you help ?

Got it!
I tried opening it in TextEdit but the funky dates were omitted from the page. Then I opened it in LibreOffice and it looked OK. The problematic dates seemed created by a special Word function. The behaving dates were manually written.
I selected all content of the document in LibreOffice and pasted into a Pages document and all dates came out as they should.

Number formatting with either 2 decimal places or none

Hello,
I'm using Acrobat 8 in XP and not familiar with Javascript.
I have some dollar amount fields where I need it to be number formatted, and limited to 2 decimal places but leave the user the ability to enter only an integer.
ie, go to two decimal places if any of
> .
> .0
> .00
> .000(...)
are present but leave it off if none are present.
I assume I need a custom format script but I've not been able to learn enough to figure it out yet.
If anyone can give me some code I can edit and paste, that would be great. Any help is appreciated.

> Have a String as "3.0000000"
String s = "3.0000000";
System.out.printf("%.2f", Double.parseDouble(s)); // 3.00

Issue with display of decimal places

Hi,
In our custom built components we are facing a strange issue with the display decimals where the data type of an element is "QUAN - Quantity field, points to a unit field with format UNIT".
If the element has a value of 3000.000 KG the value is displayed as 3000. Where as for an element which has a value 3000.123 KG the same is displayed as it is with the decimals. We tried to resolve the issue by using Text editor or Input field as read only but in vain. The display property in the context are set to default.
If we change the element data type reference to "Dec - Counter or amount field with Comma and Sign" then all the values are displayed with the decimal places even if decimals are zero.
As a result we are facing alignment issues for the various quantity related elements displayed on the screen. To change the underlying data type of the element is a not a solution for us as the data type quan is required for conversion from one unit to another unit.
Can someone please advise how we could resolve this issue. We are on NW 7.0 + EHP4 + NW 7.01 SP4, kernel patch level 55 for 7.01
Regards
Rohit Chowdhary

Jameel, Thanks for the answer but this is a not a solution for us. We have around 40-50 webdynpro components and with mutliple views referring to this data element / domain combination. More so the context are bound to database tables / structures .
I hope to get a reply from Thomas on possible solution for this. I am not sure if I can open an support ticket for this issue.

I need to get 2 decimal places when using a formula for a quotient and Numbers will only give me whole integers which is useless since most items will be less than 1. How can I change this?

How do I get 2 decimal places when using a formula for a quotient? It only gives me whole integers. Most of the results will be less than 1 so I need 2 decimal places

the quotient function returns only whole number portion of the dividing two numbers. If you want the actual decimal value use the divide operator. you enter this as:
A/B
if the numerator is in A1 and the denominator is in B1 you can enter the formula like this:
=A1/B1

Select amount field of a table with decimal place of 3rd value grater than 0.

Select all the reord in a table with amount decimal place of 3rd value grater than 0.

Can you show the sample data + desired result?
