We should find a trick to allow displaying vector values in a better way. Right now you have only a limited number of digits, which makes it impossible to distinguish between large ints for instance.
Either we find a smart way of determining the format intelligently based on vector values, or we could add options in the UI. A combobox with a number of typical presets would not be bad, but if we implement bug #257285 it becomes awkward. In that case a click (RMB) menu on the column header may be better, but it lacks discoverability...

Ideas welcome!


Reproducible: Always

I've been thinking about this a bit and I think I have some nice ideas. As it has to be handled together with bug #257285 (because you won't do it the same if you visualize one vector or many), I'm closing this one now and I'll post meckups to the other one.
