Remebering fractional values in Extrude & Bevel
You can type in fractional values in Extrude & Bevel and they work fine, although AI rounds them up immediately in fields, though applies to the art.
But when you try to save this appearance in Graphic style and then re-apply to another art, all fractional bits are gone, AI treats them as integers both ways.

I hope this info will be helpful.Well, the data gets lost and the precision suffers.
It IS a bug, and the fact it was designed like this means it was designed with a flaw.
Please make it work as it should to allow perfect isometric graphics quickly created.
If the team fired all the engineers who coded this — users shoul not suffer. -
Sadly not fixed.
'It works this way' is not an excuse to allow loosing the fraction tail, which is essential to get proper verticals without a tilt.
Loosing precision while creating an isometric art — silently loosing one! — is not a desirable behavior.
This should be addressed.
