(...) I think these should have 4 decimal places, as with the majority of the circular primitives. The reason for this is that there is often a need to use 3DPs in parts. Where these include circular primitives and scale them up by a factor of 10 (...) (24 years ago, 21-Sep-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)
