How to change distance precision in the Measure tool

In the screencap below I've selected two parallel faces to measure the distance between them.  The Measure tool tells me the distance to two decimal places.  I can adjust precision within the Measure dialog, but that only effects Selections 1 & 2, not the distance measurement.  Is there any way to increase the precision for distance?

Follow the Screencast to get what you desire.  After setting it this way, the Distance value will follow the Precision setting regardless of the number of trailing zeros that are displayed.
