Hi! I’m not sure I totally understand, but if your Quantity column is formatted as a number column in Glide, you can change the precision (so no decimal places, or 10000 decimal places).

Hello, thanks for answering, but maybe I didn’t make myself explain well. Suppose you want to buy an item that sells by the pound, and I want to buy 1/2 pound (0.5 pound) of that item, that would be my Quantity (numeric) column, but Glide shows it is 1 and not 0.5, in other words it rounds the value, and what I want is to show it as 0.5

What is the precision on your number column?

Hello, thanks for answering, I already realized that I had the precision in 1, I put it in 1.00 and it already shows the correct value. Thank you.
