Good news: You probably don't need to resolve anything. It's all as it should be.
Okay, first of all it ISNT good news. I save the values using WriteFloat and load them using ReadFloat. I use the loaded value to position the object - this of course means that it shifts to the right by roughly 2.4 units.Clearly this is going to be a problem though if more values like this appear. I dont want to save the data as a string since it takes up more space and I'd like to minimise the file size.
Floyd: I have tried this and it doesn't give the results I expect. This demo below gives a return value of 189.979996
Open in online IDEFunction LimitFloat#( value#, decimal_places=5) decimal_point = Instr( value, "." ) tmp$ = Left$(value, decimal_point ) + Mid$(value, decimal_point+1, decimal_places) + "0" value# = tmp Return value# End Function Print LimitFloat#(189.987654321, 2)
Unusual yes. Also damned annoying.
