Again, not sure how many people know ... or care:
If you want to move an object 8-23/32", you can either input decimal as 8.71875" OR you can input fractions directly as 8.23/32" on the numeric pad.

More Fractions and expanding into Unicode:
To enter Unicode Values - See http://unicode-table...ntrol-character
For a really comprehensive list of symbols, characters, game symbols (chess, cards etc) try here: http://unicode.org/charts/
Type the relevant Hex Code and then Press and hold ALT then Press X then release ALT.
So for example
215a = 5/6
215b = 1/8
2153 = 1/3
2655 = ♕ (Chess Queen)
2623 = ☣ (Biohazard)
Doesn't work in the forum boxes, but try it in Softplan's "Text" box.
This will allow a whole host of special characters to be input.
Not sure if these will work with all fonts, but should work with most - the more detailed the font the better - Arial Unicode MS, I believe supports all the codes.
Obviously this is not just Softplan, but should work with a lot of software. The only trick is remembering all the Codes .... Good luck with that!
