DragFloat, SliderFloat: Rounding scalar using the provided format string instead of parsed precision. (#648)

CHANGELOG.txt

@@ -61,6 +61,7 @@ Other Changes:
   This allow using custom formats to display values in scientific notation, and is generally more consistent with other API. Obsoleted functions using the optional "int decimal_precision" parameter. (#648)
 - DragFloat, DragInt: Cancel mouse tweak when current value is initially past the min/max boundaries and mouse is pushing in the same direction (keyboard/gamepad version already did this).
 - DragFloat, SliderFloat: Fixes to allow input of scientific notation numbers when using CTRL+Click to input the value. (~#648, #1011) 
+- DragFloat, SliderFloat: Rounding-on-write uses the provided format string instead of parsing the precision from the string, which allows for finer uses of %e %g etc. (#648, #642)
 - Style: Changed default style.DisplaySafeAreaPadding values from (4,4) to (3,3) so it is smaller than FramePadding and has no effect on main menu bar on a computer. (#1439)
 - Misc: Added IMGUI_CHECKVERSION() macro to compare version string and data structure sizes in order to catch issues with mismatching compilation unit settings. (#1695, #1769)
 - Demo: Fixed Overlay: Added a context menu item to enable freely moving the window.
