Significant Figures Truncate Trailing Zeros

[VanHulleOne]

Currently, EngineeringPaper.xyz truncates trailing zeros after the decimal even though they should count as significant figures. i.e. if significant figures is set to 4 and you have 1/10 as a result you get 0.1 instead of 0.1000. Personally, I am on the fence about what behavior I would prefer.

Con of showing the trailing zeros: adds a little clutter.

It is a little confusing if you use local sig figs to know how much your result has been rounded (you have to remember each local sig fig setting since it isn't displayed). I was also confused when I changed the sig fig setting and my result did not change until I noticed this issue. Because of these two reasons I am leaning slightly more toward showing the trailing zeros but could be convinced otherwise.

Yes, the automatic setting will remove insignificant trailing zeros. To preserve insignificant trailing zeros, use the "Fixed" option as shown below:
