Use "bean-doctor display_context <filename>" to view the tolerances inferred. They're inferred from the other numbers in your file.
This is an issue that's annoying me a lot; I'd gladly fix it, but it's easily a couple of days of work to do this properly. It's needed because some numbers are intended to be rounded (e.g. resulting from arithmetic operations). Fixing it is not as straightforward as providing one default per-currency, because the precision to be used for rendering depends on whether the price is being used to render units in the currency itself or used to render a price, and even then, the number of digits to be used depends on what other commodity it's pricing. I need to change the design so that a dictionary of precision per currency PAIRS is inferred and can be overridden (not just the default) by the user, for each pair. Ideally one should be able to just set the precision for - currency - currency when used as a price (default for all commodities) - currency when used to price commodity X On Sun, Nov 15, 2020 at 4:38 AM Cameron Wood <[email protected]> wrote: > Hello, and thank you for your reply. > > > On Saturday, 14 November 2020 at 22:19:53 UTC+1 [email protected] wrote: > >> I don't have any immediate help, but was wondering if you could give an >> example of where it's being represented as a decimal?
