Actually just displaying .54 should mean exact! the way it is set up now.

OIC, Burr hits self on head. You mean I would know if it were not exact because you could at least easily fit the 2 extra zeros!

Yes that works there but you did point out a possible confusion area where one may think that .5400 was then end of it and not edit his entity.

The original UI was very clean and sleak. The question is....Is there a way to visually let the user know that there are exteneded digits on that displayed number, without opening the EditSizeMenu popup? (That does handle it by the way, and you gave me a shortcut to launch it..Very nice, Just thinking of a quicker "visual clue".


For instance this:



Would tell me that the first 2 vaules are exactly as they are displayed, but that .54 actually had more data in the range of my decimal settings and I should further edit or review this with the EditSizeMenu popup. yet keeps your label unclutered with the huge values that Could be created by trying to display all the decimal places out front like that.
