Actually the only problem with LeoCad Ldraw export is that it is limited to 2
decimal digits. I had some precision problems (slightly moved parts) because of
that.

From what I understand, the .00 values aren't specifically prohibited in the
LDraw format, but that they may be unnecessary.  It also appears that in some
cases, it throws errors when trying to use these files in LPub.

it's just a matter of
changing a printf and you can have more decimal places.

Is this a user configurable setting?  If so, can you provide a bit more detail
on how to make the change?

Thanks!
