Valentijn, As far as I can tell, it is behaving exactly as expected. Ultimately, under the hood, it is simply re-using the Java syntax. https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/i18n/format/decimalFormat.html Also the little '?' icon in the preferences dialog explains this. I used your format to generate the attached image. See latitude value and compare to longitude and altitude. This is what I expect given the #0.### format. What is the format you would really like? If possible, provide an example.
