Auto-relocating of part placement problems

Hi,

unfortunately i'm facing an error which totally breaks usability for me.

When inserting a via1-part into the pcb sketch and trying to set up his placement whenever i filled one of the location textboxes fritzing seems to alter my dimensions. I've got a PCB of 400x90mm, and i was trying to insert row of 5 pcs of vias in a row to make a custom header (standard 2.54 spacing), i was trying to place the first via at x= 28.1mm y=14.75mm
When i enter those dimensions my 28.1mm are being altered to 28.077mm and my 14.75mm to 14.739.. I tried disabling the snap to grid feature, thought it might be a problem with the imperial measurements in the grid, switched to mm in the grid, but nothing changes. There seems to be an internal bug that prevents me from placing whatever elements where i actually want/need them. This wouldn't be a big problem if i would be able to not care about relative measurements between seperate rows of via's, but i need to mount some stuff at those exact locations, thus need the placement to work. Propably just a minor, well hidden though, bug.

That aside the whole component creating/altering thing has to change to make it actually usable, but i'm sure you've heard that 1-2 times already.

I'd appreciate help of any kind, i really like the look&feel of fritzing and want to use it, but for now i can't.

Thanks!
