Description Hal Baird 2025-01-01 03:47:24 UTC 
Description:
Add mil (.001 inch) unit.
Current .02 inch resolution inadequate to express common inch fractions, e.g., 1/8 inch = 125 mills.
It is not necessary for the graphic to be drawn to that resolution if the screen resolution will not support at some viewing scale, but it is necessary to be able to dimension to that resolution.


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Enter dimension 1.125
2. Hit enter
3.

Actual Results:
Entry changed to 1.02

Expected Results:
Software designed to respond 1.02. 1.125 desired


Reproducible: Always

See also bug 44267, but this is functionally a duplicate of bug 152079

Require API refactoring for working in EMU (English Metric Units) 1=EMU 1/360000mm and 1/914400in the LCM bridging inch 254 centmeter 100 and point 72.

1/1000in mil calculations would gain precision.
