kendo.format trailing zeroes for decimal number formatting

[Boris Gheihman]

I'm getting strange results for kendo.format:

kendo.format('{0:0.##%}', 0.035) // 3.50%
kendo.format('{0:0.##%}', 0.045) // 4.5%

It's very unexpected behavior. I could reproduce it on latest version of kendo, here is a dojo.

Hi Boris,

you should escape the percentage sign, like our documentation states.

I'm sorry Petyo, I didn't specify the exact issue. I want it to be transformed and rendered as percentage actually. I'm just not sure why I have trailing zero in first example. I think it should be rendered as "3.5%" not as "3.50%". What do you think?

Hi Boris,

sorry for the misunderstanding. After some further investigation, this turned out to be a bug in our implementation - I am logging it for a fix here.
