In the latest builds the accuracy is improved to 3 digits after the comma. This means that in the crop-tool the adjustment arrows up and down adjust the size in steps of one thousands. In a lot of cases that accuracy is great.
But for me that accuracy is too much and I want to be able to adjust in steps of tenths. I tried if ctrl-clicking or alt-clicking changed the amount of change, but that didn't work.
Is there a setting to enable that?
If not, is it possible in a next build to implement something like that?
Regards,
Ed

Hi, evdbogaard
thanks for the post. Please excuse my ignorance, but what dialogue are you referring to here? You mention adjustment arrows in the Crop tool. Do you mean these?
sorry if I am being obtuse.

Hello, evdbogaard
Thank you for confirming, I have prompted the Dev team to consider this, though I cannot promise a change is coming at this time. If a ticket is made for this, I will followup here.
Kind regards,

Ok, we'll wait and see.
Btw, I see in your screenshot that when using inches the accuracy is 4 digits. I use centimeters and then the accuracy is 3 digits.

Re: Accuracy with 3 digits after the comma is sometimes to much
Hello evdbogaard,
Yes - the precision seems to be two digits when working in mm, three digits when working in cm, and 4 in inches.
As Dan said above - we've asked our colleagues in the dev team to take a look and consider updating this behaviour, however it is up to them to review and decide at this point.
Kind regards,
Stefan

Hi again Ed,
the devs have agreed to do something here, it is considered low priority, but it is officially in the pipe with ticket RT#6934: Feature Request :: Editor :: Accuracy with 3 digits after the comma is sometimes to much
I do not have an ETA for delivery, ultimately it will be at the discretion of the development team.
