User Parameters Glitch with fractions

[dvn711]

(not sure I posted in the correct board) I noticed a glitch in user parameters. When setting up a parameter using fractions (0 1/2), it shows the value in the box (picture 1), but when you click OK, the value shows as 0. And any formula you create with that value shows as 0 (Picture 2). If you then edit the formula and again type 0 1/2, the value pops up and the formula works (picture 3).

I tried the way you were doing it and it did the same thing to me. I typed it as 0 1/2 and it came up as 0. I tried it with other numbers and it came up as 0 as well. I tried it without putting the 0 in front of it, i.e. 1/2, 5/16, etc., and the measurements worked the first time. Not sure why it won't accept the 0 but my suggestion would be so you won't have to go back and retype the measurement a second time, don't type the 0 in front of the fraction.

Hi! It is a bug. I can reproduce it. The "Add User Parameter" dialog equation parser seems to behave differently than the one in the "Parameters" dialog. This is wrong. It should just work.

Let me follow up with the project team and see how we can address it.

Many thanks!
