In the new gcalctool you must explicitly add the base. You can do this by pressing the x_16 button in programming mode to enter FF in hexadecimal: FF₁₆ In gcalctool 5.29.92 (not yet released) the shortcut key for this is Ctrl+H The setting for display format only affects the format that results are displayed in.
