changing numbers in dialog boxes

[bbbrown]

Can someone tell me how to make NX5 stop changing the numbers I type into some of the dialog boxes. For example, If I extrude something 1 inch, the next time I use the extrude command, it will show .99999 in the dialog box. If I use .125, then next time it will say .1249999

I figured this was a setting that has to do with the presicion of the numbers but I couldn't find anything that seemed to affect it. I work at a large company with hundreds of UG seats but the guy at our help desk didn't know anyhting about it.

Thanks in advance,
Brad

This is limited to only when working in Imperial (Inch) units. And it has been fixed, and while I'm not sure exactly which MR the fix was in, when I test this in NX 5.0.5.3 I no longer see the problem (and I KNOW what the problem looked like as I was one of the first people to open a PR).

Thanks John,

I don't know which version we are on but I will check... who knows when we will get our next version. Glad to hear it has been fixed though.
