(custom jmx) metric numbers rounded

I'm trying out AppDynamics, especially custom (jmx/mbean) metrics. Getting the metrics does work pretty easily, however, I have some metrics wich are doubles but AppDynamics rounds these values. Since the metrics have values between 0 and 2-3, having the decimals as well is pretty important. AppDynamics recongizes the MBean attribute as type 'double', but the value is always 0,1 or 2 (or, in very rare cases 3), although the values are always with decimals (checked in visualvm). 

Why does AppDynamics round values, but more important, is there a way to let AppDynamics get the real values (not the rounded ones)?

- using the trial version, on-premise.

... actually, we don't round those numbers, we truncate them.

The full story is that we currently only support integers for custom metrics in JMX and Information Points. We do have support for doubles/floats in our road map, and I believe it will be supported in our Spring release.
