That's close enough to cover most drawings.
But it would be nice to be able to set a default.

Thanks all. If I make a suggestion to LO - add some more CAD abilities to Draw such as higher precision. LOD is a very useful program, and could be even more useful.

Is there a way to get 3-places?Is that LOD as distinct from LOW, LOC, LOI, LOB, etc.? o Go to Tools | Options... | LibreOffice Draw | General | Scale. o Set "Drawing scale" to 1:10. o Locate your line at 1.25". I trust this helps.Nope. The line is set to 0.13" from the margin.Looks like this is a long-standing unfixed issue: https://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=9688 (from 2008) If you work in mm, the 2 decimal places the GUI so unreasonably forces will give a precision of 10μm.
