Hello Chris,

Within the text dialog, change the X.XX number from 2 to 4 and press the
Add Parameter button (d0 icon) to the right. In the attached example I set
it to 5 places after the decimal. I hope that helps.

Thank you,
Bryan

OK, I'm going to do a finger wag at both Chris AND Autodesk.

First Autodesk:

How about "Precision" instead of "X.XX" over that control? Hmmmm?

Chris, this is right in help. Right on the page that comes up when you hit the help button from text editor.

Rant off

I believe there is a bug here.
When I changed to 4 and press Add parameter, sometime I got 1.0000 instead
of the actual number
Secondly, I had to change to user parameter and switch back to Model
parameter to see the value in the parameter box changed to 4 decimal places
