Where a format string specifies at least one required decimal place, all optional decimal places are displayed even when they are not required. If all decimal places are optional, the format is displayed correctly.

I have a numeric entry field displaying a decimal ( 123.456789 ) with a format of 0,0.##
It display correctly as 123.46 but when you go to edit it display all decimal places. Should the format also apply when editing?
Side note, is it possible to remove the up/down arrows on the numeric entry field when editing?
It turns out that both of your questions regard expected behaviors.
The format is only applied on a visual level so as not to change any value coming in (we don’t want to change values you supply - only how they’re visually represented).
Before the theming update we had removed them from Chrome but not Firefox. It sounds like going forward we’re going to be more hands-off since we’re allowing and encouraging customers to develop their own CSS. AS a result, we’ve removed the Chrome-specific removal of the arrows.
