My only concern was about if the float precision that was allowed to be edited in the actual edition mode.
I gave a look on the patch and looks Kristoffer has some concerns about it, but I couldn't get a chance to test the patch to see if / how it was keeping the decimal places.

I like the idea of spin controls but does it allows you to "formal" insert (typing) manual the value?

Subject: Re: [Kicad-developers] [PATCH] Changed the 3d model previewer to use spinboxes

If no one is opposed to adding spin controls to the 3D model selection
dialog, I'll commit this patch when I get a chance.  I've never been
convinced that using a spin control to change a floating point number is
terribly useful but I'm guessing some users will prefer this over manual
entry of calculated values used by old curmudgeons like me.
