Default Embedding IF: depends on result..

p.s: # signs for narrowed column was what wanted / used. helps to reduce
view of numbers all 100, <0... same idea for reducing view to 10's with
single digit, helps speed up visual scan of sheet.

where my sheet took 8 to 10 times more space before, worker cell/ column made:
if formual cell result 80, then 8; gave an absolute 8... second colum
(3rd/4th column) with same idea could then be sorted as sub to (what mean
is: saved much space, but 1st columns are absolute: 81, 82, or 8.1, 8.2..
see 8); means I can no longer sort the second set of columns.

I believe this to be a Huge problem in excel: not having a check box, where
I don't have to (80-0.5) on 1/2 the figures in every cell, thru-out the sheet.

people otherwise don't know it, conditional format colors / "numbers
viewed", are all off. In trying to quick visual scan a sheet: colors &
numbers are all "OFF".
Looking at 80 in 1 cell is green, the next it is red...

Is there a way to turn off rounding up / down in a sheet?

Number / Text Combination "Custom" formatting:
what else would have done, is for having examples of custom formatting,
numbers 100 <0 (see # signs) to be able to format x10 see 120.. stead of 12
