Hi Daniel Thanks for your reply and link to the post. I tried searching the archive but seems like gmane is having some issues at the moment.
Conversion of floats to int is a good proposition. I was also thinking on the same lines but wanted to find if a direct approach using floats could be used. Also, the suggestion from Guido on use of implication to break the element constraint looks interesting too.
