Allow user to set number format in ICM grid windows

It would be great if a user could set number formats in InfoWorks ICM grid windows. For example, we are calibrating a large diameter pipeline by adjusting Manning's n values. We are using 5 digits after the decimal place, but ICM only shows 4 digits. When I copy from the grid, it only copies 4 digits after the decimal. So I have to use a csv export to see the actual values. Or at least set Manning's n values to 5 digits after the decimal place.

      I support this idea. In fact, I have a similar/related feature suggestion. Indeed it would be great to see more digits in the grid. Issue: when copy+pastying grid-values, often information is lost. We encountered this when dealing with X/Y-coordinates. Tables are copied with display precision, an in the case of x/y coordinates that's up to 1 decimal case. Unfortunately there isn't a better way than using the Open Data Export Centre. Having additional digits/decimal cases in the grid would save us time.
