ArcGIS Viewer for Flex 3.0 precision formatting issue in Query & Search Widget

Question

I am using the following .xml for a Query Widget. The result returns a number but the "BMI Pct at High Risk" field does not return a number formatted with precision of 1 (ie. 53.3333). This field is esriFieldTypeDouble. I am having the same problem when using the Search Widget. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks. http://services.arcgis.com/8BKVd7DzccTE7TwW/arcgis/rest/services/FG2012_grd3_female_BMI/FeatureServer/0 BMI_Percentage_at_High_Risk>50 District_Name 800000

Robert,
I set the precision (significant digits) to 3 and republished the feature service through ArcGIS Online Subscription Services (AGO SS) but the numbers still return unformatted (ie. 53.333) in the widget results. If I publish a Map Service through AGO SS, I do not have access to the attributes, so that doesn't work. I do not have a server so cannot publish directly and I do not have access to the tools necessary to recompile the uncompiled version (assuming I could get the Action Script to work). Thanks for your suggestions.

Pat,

You would either have to get into the code of the uncompiled viewer to do it in ActionScript or you set the percision of that field in the MXD and then republish the map service.

I am fairly new to this so if there is no support to format the number, I can live with that but if there is another way to format it other than how I am attempting to, please let me know. Thanks for your quick response.
