Description

When using "format_number" in an expression to format labels, entering a negative value for the number of decimals causes QGIS not to respond for some time until it displays the error "bad allocation".
Ideally, format_number would allow negative values to be able to round to whole tens, hundreds etc. like "round()" does. At least an error should be displayed immediately and with a meaningful message.
