How to convert decimals to integers

I wanted to follow up with a slight work-around for the problem I explained above:

The problem is if I try to do any math, I'll get the 3 trailing decimals, ie 147.000
I tried manually putting in 147.000 into the "Height" property, and it wouldn't accept it. It just kept the previous value in there.

I guess my request is that these fields be updated to accept decimal inputs, and just trim off the trailing decimals.

*edit* My work around was to just set a nonvisable object the same size as the original, with the same pack size/location properties. (I'm changeing the size of a frame depending on certain conditions). This way I could change the size back and forth, without doing the simple math equations.

I've used my solution in my Info Center, because I needed to use simple math to properly display my drop-down list in the tree-view. I have to add several values together to position them correctly when each expands/collapses. I also had to change the scroll length each time.

While the "Top" "Height" "Left" and "Width" do not support trailing decimals, the comma delimited (IE: Location, MinimumScrollExtent) values will. It will trim off the decimals automatically. I forget where I first saw this mentioned, but I tried it for myself in the UIBuilder a while ago.

Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Select.MinimumScrollExtent=('146' ## ',' ## SUM) SUM=(Parent.Parent.SETTINGS.SizeCollection) + (Parent.Parent.SETTINGS.SizeTotal)
Parent.Parent.HQ.Location=('0' ## ',' ## ADD) ADD=(Parent.Parent.Collection.Top) + (Parent.Parent.Collection.Height)

Hope this helps.
