Attribute Controller - Prices and Weight - Decimal Values Problem

[mc12345678]

I know this is an old thread, but I think it is still very valid.
Recently a customer asked me about the same problem as stated by GoldBuckle, I think a new variable should be introduced

1. decimal places for viewing, set per currency
2. decimal places for calculation, set in only place, or make it fixed at 4 like the database value (preferred by me).

I do not think it is a quick fix, in a search through the files I found "decimal_places" mentioned in 10 files. Going to investigate.

If not mistaken this is ¤actually wrapped around the issue of round first then multiply (happens on some pages) versus multiply then round (as desired). It is documented and addressed in several threads throughout the forum.
