Round number warning

[bures]

It would be helpful if applications could appropriately display that a numeric value in a text field is rounded. A lot of the problems with Affinity apps come from the fact that the actual dimension or position value does not match the displayed value.

 

Yes, I know it is possible to increase the number of decimal places displayed, but even that is often not enough.

I would like it to be at least 3 decimal positions as default.
One can hover the fields in the transform panel and adjust to whole integers with a flick of the mousewheel.
And use the ctrl or shift modifier to adjust to tens or hundreds.

The first thing I set up after installing Affinity.

Unfortunately, the transform panel has a bug - the editing fields do not adjust to the size of the panel, so even though the panel is wide enough, the editing fields are small, and not enough destinations are displayed 😞

So the option to set more decimal places (6 in the given example) is quite often useless because these places are not displayed.
