Hi Eric
I think on v. 5.00 Dynamic parallels is not recording correctly.
If you enter, say 30.456 as a parallel distance, then it draws a parallel correctly 30.456 away. However if you return to parallels to draw another it shows 30 in the box and draws a parallel 30 away. So it's rounding down.
And if you enter say 30.6, the first time it draws OK at 30.6 parallel. If you re-visit it, it has rounded up to 31 and draws a parallel 31 away.
If you simply keep on drawing parallels without re-visiting the parallels window, it correctly draws them at whatever you entered. It's only if you re-visit the parallels window that it shows a rounded-up or rounded-down figure. In v. 4.9x it always retained the last entered figure.
Haven't tested it with Static parallels.
I have Preferences >> General >> Display set to x.xxxx and Preferences >> Dimensions >> Display set to x. I tried Preferences >> Dimensions >> Display set to x.xxxx, but it didn't make any difference.
Cheers -- George
