Ok, I'll change the settings to show more decimals. So if I correct all these individual layers to whole integers first, any adjustment to the whole object to slice of the pixel fractions returns the many layers underneath to partial pixel values again.

Yes, so I have integers in the Transform boxes, the issue is that the object (with many layers therein) has x fraction of pixel hanging off the top and 1-x fraction pixel hanging off the bottom (i.e. row of 1/4 pixels at the top and 3/4 at the bottom). This means my object is an integer dimension of pixels, and its position is also an integer. But the split pixel shared between the top and bottom remains and cause issues.
The only way for me to crop a portion of a pixel (or move the object in "crop" mode, to align the object with a whole integer pixel), is to have all snapping and pixel alignment off, which in turn means I can't ensure my adjustment lands exactly on a whole pixel.
I tried exporting as a png, there's still a line that shows up and disappears at different zoom levels.

Thanks for the response. I only turned on the "move by whole pixels" after I'd rounded off my existing objects- but I changed the preferences to show two decimal places, and still, all my object sizes and positions are still showing as whole numbers in the transform panel. Is there a way I can use exporting or some sort of whole document manipulation to sort of refresh the pixel readings? Or a more precise setting for cropping, so I can just manually slice off that half pixel?

Hi! I'm troubleshooting a disruption in my seamless pattern when I export to PDF- thin white line that shows up between two repeating patterns. I set the document to move only by whole pixels, yet when I zoom into a pixel by pixel view, I see that the bottom and top row of pixels on each object is split. This is not reflected in the transform panel (object sizes and positions are only whole pixels. I'm trying to clip the top or bottom fraction of a pixel, but I can't figure out how this would be done. Thanks!

Thank you- I realized I don't have a need to keep it from being rasterized at this point, and either that or flattening the PDF made the seams disappear!
