Is there any way to correctly round a negative number to one decimal?
-0,615 rounded down to one decimal should be -0,6, but evaluates to -0,5 in SolidWorks.

There is settings on how SW manage rounding.
That might be the reason. Check your settings
Christian,
The only way I can think of is by checking if it's negative or positive and when it is indeed negative to add a 0.05 to the number to be rounded.
That way -0.61 becomes -0.66 and will result in -0.6 instead of -0.5
and -0.65 will become -0.7 instead of -0.6
Oh dear, it's even worse.
Try this :
Have a positive number 0.64 and round it to the 2 decimal places
I get as result 0.64, which is to be expected.
However when I do the same with -0.64 I get -0.63 even if I do -0.640000 I still get -0.63
Can anyone confirm this?
I get the same result:
I'm asking my VAR about it because the
Christian,
My VAR notified me that It is a known issue
SPR 864186
I only can advise you to notify your VAR so that you'll get notified about it
Have a nice one

Hi try this,
using round formula and if statement....
Hi it didn't work to copy/paste the formula, but I got it to work after i modified it:
"a" = - .615
"b" = if ( "a" < 0 , round ( "a" * - 1 , 1 ) * - 1 , round ( "a" , 1 ) )
It works, but it's an unnecessary workaround.
Thanks for the help.
