Note: Due to a bug in the plugin framework, xOffset and yOffset are parsed as integers.

Parsing these values correctly would allow more precise positioning.

have you checked whether this still hotds true in the new 2.0 plugin framework?
There won't be any furter fixes for 1.3 and the plugin framwork for 2.0 is very different.
The documentation you cite is for the 1.x plugin framwork, the documentaion for 2.0 is built into MuseScore, in the Plugin Editor's help

Thank you for the prompt feedback. I understand that it won't be fixed in 1.3
I haven't rewritten my plugin for 2.0 so I don't know whether this problem still exists.

The builtin documentation is an API reference - is there (or will there be)
a 2.x plugin development guide? The closest I've found is this post:
