How do I convert point coordinates which are in Float64 array to Float32 without any impact on mesh connectivity and integrity? Thank you.

- Filters -\> Calculator
- Check “Coordinate Results”
- use “coords” as a formula
- select “Float” as the results array type.

(This was not tested but should work imo)
