Table of several columns in Writer. Creat one column of figures,

If enter 17 (no decimal point), interpret to 17.00. If enter 17.1,
show 17.10 -- without entering trailing zero. Can't find setting or
mention in index, or under menus for formatting, alignment, or
auto-correct.

To save keystrokes, can this be done in a table?

It should work if you select the column, right-click, and select Number
Format. Then select Number and one of the formats that shows two decimal
places, and set the decimal places value near the bottom of the dialog
to 2.

And pls. also have a look at Tools>Options>LibreOffice Writer>Tables > Input in Tables for global settings.

Ciao - Cor
