Again, Richard, the issue isn't the decimal places, it is the leading 0's. You can enter "1.00" with no issues, but not "01.00". That said, your decimal places aren't really giving you anything, since 1.00 === 1. There is absolutely no reason to specify them.
It is perfectly reasonable to use numbers to represent the number of minutes/seconds/hours/days passed since a certain event, but we also support a number of ways to represent dates and times. You can find the documentation for those here: https://developers.google.com/chart/interactive/docs/datesandtimes Please be aware that date formatting is currently broken for Material Charts, and timeofday doesn't really format itself properly if it spans for longer than a day. These issues should be fixed with the next release.
