Major contours round up?

Hi all,

 

When I try and display contours with the standard surface style Contours 0.1m and 0.5m It rounds up the major 0.5m contour.

 

I thought I had found the precision and rounding settings, but when I change them to precision of 0.1 (Or whatever) there is no change to the contour lables dispalyed.

 

I am changing the values in the Toolspace settings tab, Surface>Label Styles>Contours>Major

component name >Surface Contour Level, Then clicking in the Text Contents Value.

Properties>surface Level... then finally the precision and rounding values are here.

 

Is this the correct place to make changes?

If so, what could I be doing wrong? I cant see any overrides, or any other areas to change the precision for these major contours. (I checked the precision on the other contour styles as well, in case I was using a diffrent one by mistake.

 

Thanks

 

Brin

You are in the correct place - see screenshot...

 

You need to select the text (in blue on screenshot) and delete, then set the precision (1 in the screenshot) then hit the Right Arrow (yellow box highlight) to transfer the setting, Ok out and that should sort it....

Glad it's sorted out - the click on the right facing arrow isn't the most obvious action and still catches me out occasionally
