The Rounding coordinates of objects dialog
Summary
The Rounding coordinates of objects dialog is used to define to which documents the rounding process will be applied. The rounding process rounds up the internal coordinates of objects to counter any rounding effect when switching from Imperial to Metric measurement units mid-design. The overall result is that the internal coordinates of all design objects will be as they would have been if you had started designing with metric units from the onset.
Access
The dialog is accessed from the schematic editor by clicking Tools » Convert » Round coordinates of objects from the main menus.
