VISIO 2016: How to Edit Fields in Gantt Chart?

ISSUE:

I created a Gantt chart using the New > Gantt Chart > Blank > US Units. Then I entered my dates and all went well. Now I need to edit the default field text. For instance, the "ID" column has items like "1, 2, 3" -- single digits. But, for my chart, I need it to say "1.0", "2.0", "3.0", etc.

WHAT I'VE TRIED:

I researched the issue and keep running into something about "editing a master shape copy" -- it's confusing, and looks tedious. I don't understand how I could even do that since I started from a dynamically, automatically generated template.

These two videos were helpful, but didn't cover the issue of editing fields:

  • https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D3R0o_ReapA
  • https://www.lynda.com/Office-tutorials/Creating-Gantt-chart/260/25615-4.html

I even tried just creating my own column, and set the header field type to "user defined decimal",but when I enter a decimal number, like "1.0", the zero disappears!

MY QUESTIONS:

How can I easily edit the text of automatically generated fields in Visio Gantt charts?

I'm a Visio newbie, so be gentle with me.

Any help is appreciated.
