Column lost precision when adding in the table visual

I am having latitude and longitude values, when adding this value in the table visual the precision is lost. But the data is stored in the correct precision. while displaying the values in the Table visual it is plotted incorrectly (displaying with two decimal place value)

In data view the data is stored without losing precision,

Please help to sort out this issue

yes @Anonymous , it would work, my expectation is it should display the actual precision instead of the explicit decimal position because it there is a value with 5 decimal it will make "0" for the extra places but i would like to know whether this is how a table visual will behave

Hi @SanthiyaMallow ,

This is where you can set the precision of the data in the visual:

The final result is shown in the following figure:
