I would like to display many digits to the right of a decimal point.

Right now all I can get is one digit right of a decimal. Is there a way to display a large (maybe as many as 100 or more) number of floating decimal points?

I had that problem while I was making one of my projects. It was rounding down to 0, which really didn't work. I finally gave up and shared it. Online, it behaved differently, and  didn't round nearly as much. Try sharing it. It might work differently. Also, you try having a sprite say the variable. I found it rounds less then.

Another approach is to stamp out the digits.  Kevin_Karplus has some projects that format output using stamping.  Here's one of them...

I can make you a project that does it if you want. I'm bored anyway.
