------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thu Nov 27 14:35:26 +0000 2008 ------- I don't mind if it is an enhancement or a defect. I agree that 0.01 mm resolution seems excessive. However, the 6.35 mm default value that I quoted is almost certainly an exact conversion from 1/4 inch. The interface does not support an exact conversion from 1/8 inches because that would be three decimal places (3.175 inches). I am a metric user and I want my defaults to be in multiples of 2, 5, or 10 mm. I did think that OpenOffice would work internally with metric units and only convert to inches, points, or picas at the interface. However, from your comments, it seems that it doesn't and I wonder if that is why we are getting odd results. So I have the following questions: 1. Can the internal OpenOffice calculations be done in the metric system? This should eliminate these rounding errors. 2. Can a metric user have rational metric defaults rather than a conversion from inches? --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
