Dimension Question

Recommended Posts

I have a chain of say 4 dimensions that are either end to end or manual types and each one doesn't add up to the total.  For instance one wall length dimension says it's 3'-6" but when I highlight the wall and click on the dimension to change the wall location it comes up as 3.59761".  I enter exactly 3'-6" but it still doesn't change the actual dimension but it still shows 3'-6".  The program is  obviously rounding up but that throws off the end to end dimension.  I have the dimension default set as 0 decimal places and minimum as ½".

Any thoughts as to why this is happening?
Thanks

Alan

Images show an example of changing one of the odd dimensions. Once changed, it stays changed.

 

The only dimension related setting I change is Snap Unit. This keeps your objects aligned with the snap grid, so if it is set to 1", then walls will have a length in multiples of 1".

 

The program is only rounding for display, the internal dimensions are accurate.
