ragtime for mac HELP

Hi All!

Is anyone used to the office package ragtime private?

How can I change the number of decimal places in a cell?
There is one posibility to do that in the information menu of a cell,
but the only options are 2 or no decimalplaces.

I can't imagine that ragtime is that kind of inflexible.

thx,
Peter.

You can define any number format you want in RagTime. I'm using RagTime
Solo 5.6.4 fro Mac OS X.

Choose menu 'Windows' > 'Auxiliaries' > 'Value Format Editor' to open a
window that lets you define a named Value Format of choice.

Use 'wildcard' characters in your definition to fine tune the
appearance. A full description of the available 'wildcards' can be found
in RagTime's excellent, albeit somewhat over-hyperlinked, help files.
It's in chapter 16: 'Values and References' (more specifically, in
sections 16.8 - 16.17)

If you don't have the help files, get them from the RagTime web site at

Hope this helps,
