If Writer's unit of measurement is set to metric (Tools>Options>LibreOffice Writer>General), label templates can be created with a granularity of 0.01mm, which is finer than 0.001", and it works just fine, so Writer is definitely able to handle that fine of measurements, it's just a matter of how the dimensions are stored. Hi Ben, Wouldn't it be a good idea to chenge the summary of this issue to something as: "using inches for dimensions doesn't allow a fine enough resolution (compared to metric)" or something like that? If so, can you pls do that? thanks a lot, Cor I tend to close this issue as WFM because of comment 2 or as WONTFIX if it's too much work for a small benefit.

There is bug 44267 talking about this problem and also bug 72662 where I attached a mockup how the UI might be changed. Ultimately we would have to fix bug 103322 first, I guess. My take here: make it a duplicate of 44267. |
