I'm having a hard time understanding how CA is measuring my rooms and hoped someone could help me out. I measure rooms with a laser distance meter and so have spot on numbers. Then I come to CA and begin to draw a wall. Say my room is 10'x10'. I draw out 10ft walls but I get this... The resulting measurment of 10"7" then means that CA adds 3.5" for interior wall thickness, but why is it using that measurment for living area calculation? It's including the space inside of the walls as living space. Then, when it gives me the room dimensons... 9'11"? Where does that come from? Do I have my settings wrong, I'd like to be able to draw walls using my laser measurments and have them come out exactly to that. Extend the wall thickness outward from those measurments.
Thanks
