The only way to do it right now is to use javascript to  calculate and set the number to three places. Then send it back to SL into a text variable.

Here's a script that should take a SL numeric variable named "NumericEntry", round it to 3 decimal places, and send it back to a SL text variable named "RoundedNum".

var player = GetPlayer();
 
var numValue = player.GetVar("NumericEntry");
var JSRoundedNum = numValue.toFixed(3);
player.SetVar("RoundedNum",JSRoundedNum);
 
You need to create the SL variables first.

    Hi. I'm having this same problem and have no experience with Javascript. Would I put this script in the Execute Javascript trigger?

    Thanks!
