That's close enough to cover most drawings.
But it would be nice to be able to set a default.

Thanks all. If I make a suggestion to LO - add some more CAD abilities
to Draw such as higher precision. LOD is a very useful program, and
could be even more useful.

I want to locate a line 1/8-inch (0.125") from the margin. LOD
truncates that to 0.13". Is there a way to get 3-places?
Is that LOD as distinct from LOW, LOC, LOI, LOB, etc.?
o Go to Tools | Options... | LibreOffice Draw | General | Scale.
o Set "Drawing scale" to 1:10.
o Locate your line at 1.25".
I trust this helps.
Nope. The line is set to 0.13" from the margin.
Looks like this is a long-standing unfixed issue:

If you work in mm, the 2 decimal places the GUI so unreasonably forces
will give a precision of 10μm. Not altogether convenient for the
"traditionally minded" among us though :-)
