Thousandths

The TCX files produced by Garmin ANT Agent include a precision of 7 digits to the right of the decimal for times, distances, etc. All I see in Garmin Connect are tenths. This is insufficient to compare my sprints. Please display thousandths for all values. Perhaps it would be best to include an option for how many decimal places each user desires to see.
  • That's a lot of precision for comparing points that might have as much as 80 feet of error from one lap to the next. Your GPS position as recorded might be as much as 40' off in a 3d radius. When I cross the same lap point multiple times, it sometimes is in the place I marked it, but just as frequent, it is off by 30 or more feet.

    Sure, but if the precision is there, I'd like to see it.

    And most importantly, I'd like milliseconds in order to compare my sprints, where I already know the distance anyway and may not even have the GPS on. Such as with my Garmin Swim, or with my Forerunner 310XT being used as a swim timer or a track sprint timer.
