Allow the smallest grid unit to be 1cm or 0.01m

[Ucodia]

Currently the grid unit can be changed from pixels to meters though this is useless if you are working with objects that are only a couple of centimeters in size.

Allowing to chose centimeters as a unit or decimal number as a value would allow the grid size feature to work seamlessly with all object sizes.

At the moment, it's an integer value of metres.

So could we just get the ability to set it to any decimal value instead?

Metashape Standard users will then be able to quickly scale their to our model, by setting the grid to the length they've physically measured on their scan, or a scalebar in the photos, then using the scale model, move model, rotate model tools to match it up with the grid, before rotating it back to its z-up.

This should be a small change in code?
But it'd help us a lot.

Not just with smaller scans, less than 1m, which probably make up a decent % of Metashape's work!

Hello all,

In 2.2.1 release it is possible to define up to 1mm for the grid cell size. Three decimal digits are now allowed.

Just tested it.
It works great!

Thank you so much!

This will help us 'lowly' Standard users a LOT!
