Inputting the distance in a manual entry is not convenient

[opale95]

The distance popup to input the distance has 2 boxes, one for the kilometers (or miles) and one for the meters.
If for example we want to enter 7.91 Km, we have to do like in this screenshot

4 digits in the second box is not intuitive, and when we put a non-zero first digit the resulting meters is 0.

You do not have to type the leading 0, just 791 is sufficient.
#624 tries to improve that, the question is mostly how to enter/display distances in miles.
But this is not high on my prio list...

I don't understand, whether we use km or miles in the app (by changing the unit in the settings), there shouldn't be 4 units in the second box.

One mile is 1609 m, you need 4 digits for that.
The initial decision (before my time) was to separate enter of km and meter, which is weird with miles and meters. With miles, meters could be replaced with yards, feet or parts of miles or decimal, but it is not very clear. My initial suggestion was not well received though.

Ok thanks for your explanations, i thought the second box supposed to be the decimal part for both km or miles.
