[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/TEIIDDES-1810?page=com.atlassian.jira.plu... ] Dan Florian commented on TEIIDDES-1810: --------------------------------------- When setting values, a conversion from a long to a negative float to an integer takes place. Doing this conversion a loss of precision is expected. However, the difference is *extremely* small relative to the original very large number. I talked to Steve Hawkins about this, and he said this is acceptable behavior. Agree that the user experience using the property editor is not that great (seeing a number they just entered change its value). If we want to change the current behavior I can think of 2 possible solutions: # We can make the user experience a bit nicer by displaying the value as a float. The float value will be displayed using scientific notation (which does not show all the digits. # A bit harder solution would be to save the original value as an annotation and then display that to the user instead of the actual value that results from the conversions. [~blafond] and [~mmakovy] what do you think? -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.11#64026)
