Hi

You can use the simple type to format the data.

Go to your local dictionary of the component and choose simple type. Create a simple type. There Go to representation tab. In the format type ####.##.

Now create a context variable and assign the type to the simple type you have created.

Hi

There is no need to move the data to the custom node. Instead you can use supply functions to achieve your requirement. You can get more information on this from this blob.
