Some drawings, particularly with a lot of angles, results in a very decimal number.

It would be great to have the option to change the precision of individual dimensions when necessary.

Currently, the precision is universal in the drawing.

What I'm currently doing is leave the precision to zero decimal cases and manually inserting decimals when needed, but it results in a dimension with no "Auto" label, that may result in wrong dimensions on the workflow, especially when editing the project. The dimension labeled manually will not change, so it can cause errors.
