Transform panel doesn't commit height & width values properly

Use Preview bounds would give you the value for the Height if the ellipse has a 1 pt stroke, but the Width values is strange.

I am beginning to suspect that there is something wrong with the precision in the 24.xx versions.

I noticed sometimes strange values for an A4, instead of 210 X 297 mm it gives 210,0016 mm X 297,0001 mm 

In this thread there are more complaints about precision:

"Scale Strokes & Effects" is unchecked  in the shown screenshot

Hi @meganchi,

did you also checked if you really have "uncheck" the options

Align to Grid and

Align to Pixel

Megan,

With the inconsistencies and the actual figures, it might point to something from the list (which includes preferences deletion/replacement), but what happens if you set the X and W to integer values and then (re)set the Width in the Ellipse Properties to 5?

And, forgive me for asking, are you sure there is no way you are aligning to you know what (4.0139" is an inch a a point)?

Concerning the latter question, it would fail to fit with the Y value.

The ratio of the actual W and H values is 5:4, so there seems to be a slight upscaling (which is inconsistent with the Ellipse Property values).

Here is an example where I typed in 5 x 4 on this ellipse, notice that not only are there decimals after them, but then in the properties panel those measurements are off.
