Project preferences / Dimension is set to 1 decimal, but autotext #Calculated Area return the area with 2 decimals anyways. Is this meant to work like that or is it a bug?

Project Preferences > Dimension is for when you use the dimension tool, or in the case of fills, when you turn on the 'Show Area' option.

Auto text is probably using 'calculation units'.
