Floating point using fprintf

[sonomadb]

When using printf to print out a Floating point number, the number seems to be left justified and does not always have the proper number of digits to the right of the decimal point.

My code looks something like this:
as I am converting from hex to float and multiplying:

unsigned int32 fr0;
float freq, frequint;
unsigned int freq_num;

freqint = fr0;
freq = freqint * .005;
printf(LCD_PUTC, "Freq \%1x \%08.2f",freq_num, freq);

I'm using CCS C Compiler version 3.119
Is this problem fixed yet?
Thanks,
Don

It works OK with 3.158.
Automatic typecasting works too, although I think I had problems in the past, and have done it manually since to make sure:
freqint = (float) fr0;
My understanding is poor on this point though.
