Looks like it doesn't work for fractional C-C distances. I don't use the belt length calculator anyways, as I prefer to calculate C-C based on the pulleys and belt I want to use(Center Distance calculator). The gt2 belts are metric anyways so it is probably better to use the center distance calculator and then plug the metric center distance into CAD.
