When displaying distance measurements ... Q: Does anyone feel the need to have more than one digit to the right of the decimal point when measuring in Angstroms? (or 2 digits with nanometers)
Example: 1.234 A -> 1.2 A 0.1234 nm -> 0.12 nm If you are in favor of having more than one digit ... Q: Are you sure that showing extra digits is not implying some false level of precision? > If this is not too difficult to implement, I would find it very useful > to be able to round off the decimals to one place.

I made an executive decision to reduce the number of digits to the right of the decimal place by one. So now picometers are shown as integers and angstroms are shown with two digits to the right of the decimal point. Let's see what other people think.
