--- Comment #1 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote at utsa.edu> ---
Internally the canvas already positions to 10^-5m increments--or 1/100mm--but
by design we limit the GUI widgets to just 2 decimal places. So at best we can
position in 10^-4m increments, or the rounded conversion from other measure
units (TWIPS, pts, px, ch).

For now the project calculates positions as 32-bit integers.

Achieving higher precision requires we move to floating point calculations
which is being looked at but is a long way from implementation.

For now--increasing the UI to 3 decimal places of duplicate bug 44267 is about
as far as we can go to expose the limited precision possible with current
framework.
