I created a simple sketch and I want to have it in a techdraw view. Unfortunately the dimensions in the techdraw do not match the constraints in the sketch. They are slightly different, it looks like rounding errors.
Is there a way to make the techdraw dimensions match the sketcher constraints exactly ?

Re: Wrong dimensions in Sketch in TechDraw
Maybe you forgot to properly align the 3D view before calling TechDraw_View? Try to correct the Direction and Xdirection of the view.
Re: Wrong dimensions in Sketch in TechDraw
I don't use the option to restore the view after leaving a sketch. Then, whatever the orientation of a sketch is, after leaving it is perfectly aligned to be added to a TechDraw.
A Sketcher Lecture with in-depth information is available in English, auf Deutsch, en français, en español.
Re: Wrong dimensions in Sketch in TechDraw
Correcting Direction and XDirection solves the problem.
After leaving the XY plane sketch the orientation was not exactly set to Top. If I set the view to Top manually before adding to TechDraw this also solves the problem.
Thanks for you help.
