Issue with number formatting with a custom format "#,##0.00##"

[martijn]

We have a need to for decimal formatting with a minimum of 2 decimals and a maximum of 4. However there's a 'small' rounding bug.

This:
kendo.toString(1.23126, "#,##0.00##")

Returns:
1.2313
(as expected)

However, this:
kendo.toString(1.23125, "#,##0.00##")

Returns:
1.2312

Which is clearly not expected. Because when you do this:
kendo.toString(1.235, "#,##0.00")

It returns:
1.24

This was tested using Chrome 26.somthing :)

Hello,

 
Here is a quote from answer to the ticket opened on the same subject:

Thank you for contacting us. The described behavior is actually caused by Chrome itself. Under the hood kendo.toString uses Number.toFixed. It seams that Number.toFixed method uses different rounding methods depending on the fraction length. We will address this issue in order to overcome this inconsistency (next release is due the mid of May). For now you can round number manually before pass it to toString method. I updated your Telerik points because of the involvement.
