Smart Editor Rounding Coordinates

I am using the Smart Editor widget in WAB to create and then move point features to specific XY locations. However, upon doing so I noticed that when I enter an X or Y coordinate with 6 decimal places, it is automatically rounded to 3 decimal places. This is extremely infuriating as it is placing my point 30+ metres away from where it should be. When recording the exact location of something in a forest, this 30+ metres introduces significant and unnecessary error. I have been unable to find a setting in the widget where I can configure this differently, however, the number of decimal places in the Coordinate widget CAN be changed. Unfortunately, changing this widget's settings does not affect the Smart Editor XY decimals. 

So my question is, has anyone been able to adjust the number of decimal places for the XY coordinates in the Smart Editor widget??

Just wanted to let you know that the rounding issue should have been resolved by now in Smart Editor!

Hey, it's not fixed for me, I still have the same problem. Could this be a version issue? My version of Portal is 10.8.1.

Hi @Anonymous User , that's correct, the fix is only available since Portal 10.9. https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-web-appbuilder-blog/the-smart-editor-widget-a-few-years-in-review/ba-p/1066169#:~:text=000130044
