Hi,

I want to show float value in metric visualization. Index Pattern is default configuration (0,0.[000]). In dicovery section it´s ok:

Hi @hferazza,

Can you check your index mapping? I can reproduce this when I set the field is mapped as a `long`, or similar whole-number data type. However, if I update the index mapping to be a `float`, then the visualization will show the decimal.

Spencer explains why this happens in more detail [here](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/5593#issuecomment-162963647)

It really was like "long", it worked.

Thanks,
