Relation decimal places

I was wondering if anyone could tell me how to limit the number of decimal places displayed when calling out a relation in a drawing. I've created a WEIGHT=MP_MASS relation for an assembly and have limited the decimal places of the the parameter to one decimal place but the relation still outputs three places in the drawing.
 
I have managed to figure it out. When calling out the relation in the drawing instead of using &WEIGHT to bring in the weight from the part. Use &WEIGHT[.1] gives the weight and to one decimal place.
 
could work this way too:


weight = ceil(mp_mass(""),3)


where 3is thenumber of decimal places
