Why 0.0139 pt for keyboard increment? What's the significance of that number?

[@pentoolartist]

I have no idea why Adobe chose that measurement value, but they did and that is typically the Default Setting...

@@pentoolartist .0139 inches is the same thing as 1px. Adobe just converts it into inches as a default, rather than pixels.

[@pentoolartist]

.0139 is the INCHES equivalent of 1 POINT in measurement... not pixels. The size of a pixel is based on the Resolution of the file, but I appreciate your added information here, jonnyjpg. THANKS!@@jonnyjpg_

@@pentoolartist hi! I am a little concerned about this setting. My set up currently has px as the default not pt. To change this to your recommendation I would have to change the default unit for all media to be pt instead of px. What is the risk of doing this?
