How come V0.18.4 had fractional scaling but not v0.19?

[ImLost]

Hello,

I noticed between 0.18.4 and 0.19 I can only scale to integer value and not decimal value. Why did this feature get dropped?

Any chance this feature can come back?

What are you talking about exactly? FreeCAD has a million tools. Your sentence doesn't mention any tool in particular. It's very hard to understand what you mean when you provide very little information.

It wasn't dropped. It's a known bug, perhaps a regression. You have to edit the number of decimals in Preferences->Units. You may set it later to the same value as before.

@vocx, Under the draft tool set it's one of the tools styled in a blue icon on the far right side. On that note, if there's a different tool that does the same thing, let me know.

@chrisb, that did the trick, thanks. If you can file that bug, thanks.

Blue icon, right side? That's totally unhelpful. There's many blue icons and the position actually changes from computer to computer.

Maybe you mean Draft_Scale? If so, call it by its name.

There are two scale operations in Draft, one is indeed the Draft->Scale as mentioned by vocx, the other is inside of the Draft Clone, and both behave the same.

Yorik, I think you fixed this already quite some time ago, perhaps a year or so?
