Hopefully, you haven't. Those lines should both be 4 inches long. If you type in "4" for both answers, you end up with calibration values of 1.0. What it does is try to guess which line you measured, and compute the ratio of what you measured to what it drew. So if you measure the 15 cm line and type in 14.9, it computes 14.9/15. If you enter a value that's more than 10% off of any of the line lengths, it doesn't know what you measured, so complains. _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
