winterdd Posted Tuesday at 04:39 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 04:39 PM Hey guys, I set up my dimensions to round off to the nearest 1/2" on this particular job and noticed this. I design to 23' but it dimensions to 23-0 1/2". Not good. Is there an X15 update to fix this bug? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tundra_dweller Posted Tuesday at 05:12 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 05:12 PM It might have to do with your dimension rounding method / grid snap settings. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DBCooper Posted Tuesday at 08:12 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 08:12 PM If you want to know if you have the latest update for your version, just go to the help menu and use the "download program updates" tool. This will tell you if you have the latest version, which you probably should make sure you have. As far as your dimensions are concerned, I bet that Brett is right that it has to do with the rounding method. Chief uses some logic that tries to make sure that your intermediate dimensions will always add up to the overall dimensions so your plans won't look wrong. If you really want them to be right, you probably need to check all of your dimension values to make sure they are set correctly. If you are still having problems figuring out where it is having the problem, then you should post your plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
para-CAD Posted Tuesday at 10:55 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 10:55 PM Did you have that issue before rounding to ½"? I keep mine at 1/16th and force objects to move to the exact dimension I want. So far, the CAD obeys me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I can work around it because I cannot figure it out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winterdd Posted yesterday at 02:02 AM Author Share Posted yesterday at 02:02 AM Should it be under "distance rounding"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
