NumberController Step not working properly

[backspaces]

This did not completely fix it for me. If I have a float slider that starts out with an integer value, I still get this problem. Works fine if the initial value is non-integer.

Does the fix here work for everyone else? I.e. float slider that starts out with integer initial value?

I did find a work-around:

• Make sure the initial value is non-integer.
• Add .listen() to the property.
• Then set the property to the integer value.

I.e. I start with:
var UI = {
...
x: .1, // workaround for float slider bug
y: .1,
z: .1,
...
}
gui.add(UI, 'x').min(-10).max(10).step(.1).listen().onChange(callback)
gui.add(UI, 'y').min(-10).max(10).step(.1).listen().onChange(callback)
gui.add(UI, 'z').min(-10).max(10).step(.1).listen().onChange(callback)
UI.x = UI.y = UI.z = 0

Having this problem also. Value is a float but the number in the GUI is always displayed as an int.

This was fixed by #31, but this change is not reflected in the 0.5.0 built distributable.
See source vs build.

updated the build to 0.5.1 with latest from master. https://github.com/dataarts/dat.gui/releases

I still see this issue. You can use my code for resolving of problem.
First, add my new method into dat.gui

if ( dat.controllerZeroStep === undefined ) {

	//Solving of dat.gui NumberController Step bug.
	//
	//folder: GUI or folder for new Controller.
	//object: The object to be manipulated. See https://github.com/dataarts/dat.gui/blob/master/API.md#GUI+add for details
	//property: The name of the property to be manipulated. See https://github.com/dataarts/dat.gui/blob/master/API.md#GUI+add for details
	//onchange: Callback function will be called if controller value was changed. Can be undefined.
	//
	dat.controllerZeroStep = function ( folder, object, property, onchange ) {

		var controller = folder.add( object, property ),
			input = controller.__input;
		controller.__input = document.createElement( 'input' );
		input.value = object[property];
		input.onchange = function ( value ) {

			object[property] = parseFloat( input.value );

			if ( onchange !== undefined )
				onchange( object[property] );

		};
		return controller;

	};

} else console.error( 'Duplicate dat.controllerZeroStep method.' );

Next, add a controller into gui. For example:

var gui = new dat.GUI();
var object = { min: 123.456 }
dat.controllerZeroStep( gui, object, 'min', function ( value ) {

	console.log( 'object.min = ' + object.min + ' value = ' + value );

} );

Another way of resolving of issue is debug of dat.GUI. See my
"NumberController Step is working properly" commit for details.

Now you can set step = 0 to gui controller. For example:

var gui = new dat.GUI();
var object = { min: 123.456 }
gui.add( object, 'min', undefined, undefined, 0).onChange( function (value) {

	console.log( 'object.min = ' + object.min + ' value = ' + value );

} )

Note: Plaese do not use gui.add( object, 'min').step( 0 ).

Currently I have made pull request. Please write a comments to my pull request if you want to see my code in next dat.GUI release.
