I have called to report this issue before, but I'm still seeing the problem even in the latest Studio (V3.6 Release 2). It's very easy to reproduce on my computer. My font is set to 100% scale. I'm wondering if anyone else can reproduce this? Here are the steps....
1. In Space Planning 1/4" scale, draw a horizontal line using the line tool, and note the width of the line when you are done (displayed in the tool bar) and the line is still highlighted (green ends).
2. With the line still highlighted (green ends) go up into the toolbar and change the width of the line by manually typing in a new number. For example, say the original width was 150". Highlight the 150" in the toolbar and change it to 100". (you may notice here that the line actually gets longer, not shorter!)
3. Click away to unhighlight/deselect the line.
4. Click back on the line to select it again (green ends). The Width in tool bar still says it's 100".
5. Now use the DIMENSION LINE TOOL to manually measure the length of that line. You will see it is not 100", but something much longer.
When I have a room that is an odd shape, I often manually draw the walls with the line tool, then adjust their length by the method described above. This is how I stumbled on the issue. My workaround is to have to manually measure each line I draw to be sure it's the proper length. Very curious if anyone else can reproduce this also.
