coordinate decimal precision by coordinate system
I was looking at the following article on changing the coordinate decimal percision for EACH coordinate system :

It appears this is for the Silverlight viewer. Can this be done in the HTML5 viewer?
We need different decimal percisioin for different coordinate readouts. For example: we need 5 decimal places for decimal degrees (DD) and 2 decimal places for our state plane coordinates.
Using one value for both isn't practicle. FEMA requires decimal degree coordinates to 5 decimal places. Listing our state plane coordinate system to 5 decimal places implies a level of percision that simply isn't there. Survey control points are recorded to 3 decimal places so showing 5 is misleading.

I tried to find my request for this but cannot. The problem is that the coordinate precision is set as a global. I had requested that coordinate precision be unique for each projection. There is a feature request for this.
I wholeheartedly agree that having 6-8 decimal precision for DD makes sense but is really overkill when it comes to UTM, Web Mercator, or State Plane.0 -

This is a problem for multiple customers. Use of 4 or 5 decimal places makes no sense for State Plane for example but reducing to 1 or 2 decimla places makes DD, DMS, DDM useless / near useless in most cases. We need to have the ability to specify the number of decimal places for each configured coordinate system separately. Please!
