Description Nick Van den Bleeken 2006-08-28 13:29:29 UTC 
When you change the scale parameters and/or translate parameters you can only
specify a float. The data is stored in a double (AffineTransform). When the
doubles are appended to the StringBuffer they are appended using the append
method with a double. This results in extra 'noise' digits if the float couldn't
be represented exactly. 

E.g.: If you set scaleX and scaleY to '0.1', then the the result of
getStringValue will be 'scale(0.009999999776482582 0.009999999776482582)'

Note: The problem is already fixed when outputting the 'matrix' transform. The
double is casted to a float before it is given to the append method of the
StringBuffer

Patch fixes the problem in the same way as the 'matrix' transform.

Fixed in SVN now.  Thanks for the patch!
