Hi,
I'm experiencing an anomaly in the dimension lines. When I click D,A and drag out my dimension line from a fixed point (the orange rectangle corner in the attached) I get one dimension reading; When I get a dimension without first clicking on the fixed point I get another dimension. The latter is the correct one. The former seems to start almost at 200 and when I drag it out about ten fold it reads 300. The settings all look identical for each. What am I missing?
OS is Mac OS, version 14.1.2.
QCAD is 3.29.4
Many thanks

Re: Dimension line anomaly
The drawing file (DXF/DWG) is actually the important and relevant file that we would need.
Without the drawing file, I'm guessing that your drawing is 3D (try Misc > Modify > Flatten drawing to 2D).
