Hi, my teacher gave me some drawings to duplicate and practice at home and one thing that is giving some troubles right now is when there are decimal places involve like for example a 24.95mm circle. When I use the circular dimension to illustrate it it becomes 25mm. When I analyse the entity properties of that circle it is still 24.95mm. Is it normal that it will do an automatic round off ? or do I need to do some tweaking on the "drafting option" to fix the problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated :-)

Oh wait are you using the home learning edition?
if yes, it rounds it off in that version.(Note: The opinions expressed in this post are my own and are not necessarily those of CNCzone and its management)
