I am using a Ramps with lcd screen on a small milling machine - 3 axis and all are leadscrew driven, but find the REPRAP LCD display for the X or Y steps per mm in the control/motion menu can only display under 999, ie does not show the 1000's digit. Repetier or Pronterface can set the eeprom value to 1600, which is what I require.
The Z axis does not have this problem, so imagine that it must be in the LCD setting somewhere - Where can I alter it?

Hello,

Thanks

@esenapaj I think your first solution (A) is better, because steps/mm should be as accurate as possible, down to 100ths of a mm. You may submit it, if you like!

I've submitted a patch by solution (A) just now.
