Please help me understand what you mean. Are you saying that you want FIX 5 to act like TRUNCATE 5, not ROUND 5? (I'm not trying to be obtuse... I really am not sure what you mean here).

Using FIX 5 i expect to see 5 decimals.
The number is rounded for any FIX value,
In the specific case the calculators gives a "wrong" information, displaying a rounded (to zero decimals) number instead the expected five decimals.
I am not a mathematician nor an expert of calculators principles, so I may be wrong, but as an engineer I find this behavior quite disturbing.
Strangely, I never noted it since 1989....
