Default Height entry

I've noticed that when I enter my height as '5' in feet and then '10' in inches, it then reverts to '1' in inches, removing the 0 from the 10 - so instead of being 5ft 10in, I become 5ft 1 in (hope I've made explained it properly).

Any suggestions of how to stop this happening ???

It's now fixed.

Note that it did consider it 5 10, but just showed it wrong. So if you have any charts using hight, they should still be correct (BF and LBM)

Is there a way that we can have it accept 0.5 inches in the height? I am 5' 3.5", and it will only let me enter 5' 3" or 5' 4".

Although my boyfriend says I should just say I am 5' 4" .

I don't know how much difference a 1/2 an inch will make in some of the calculations (progress/Body Fat/BMR), so if it's too much trouble, don't worry about it.

It will accept half inches, you just need to make them as .005.

So for 5' 3.5", you enter 5 in the first box, and 055 in the second box.

The next update will change the height entry fields to drop-down lists to make it easier, and less convoluted

Is this correct for 5' 3.5", enter 055 in the second box, or is it supposed to be 035?

Anyway, Thanks.

I mis-typed

For 5' 3.5", it will be 5 and 035

For 5' 5.5", it will be 5 and 055
