The line thickness bug.
I have been trying to create a floorplan for a house for over a year now and it
is finally close to done. Very minor tweaks to be done.
Current drawing is using tabloid paper.
1) Take into account wall thickness. I am using SIPs (structured insulated
panels) for the exterior walls and the roof. They are 8.5" thick. Interior
walls are standard stud, 3.5" thick with drywall.
To properly show wall thickness, I first tried setting the line thickness to
0.71 feet, a hair over 8.5". The resulting thickness of the rectangles I am
using for my rooms ballooned to over EIGHT FEET THICK. That is an absurd
miscalculation. I suspect that measurement calculations/conversions are not
being restricted to a single module, but may perhaps being done haphazardly in
random modules in a variety of ways. This happened in the previous version as
well. Cannot say how far back as the previous version was my first attempt.
Is it possible that the setting is using feet, but showing a quote mark,
indicating inches that is the issue?
Would be helpful to be able to declare how a line thickness should be applied
as using the line location as center and expanding in both directions is
utterly useless for the purpose I was attempting to use it.
2) I updated my system yesterday, which updated LibreOffice/Draw. Now NOTHING
appears to align to their proper location. The grid is laid out accurately in
the drawing, 2 feet per square, but none of the rectangles/rooms in the drawing
are where they should be. They all ready correctly when showing Position and
Size, but, again, NOT in the correct location
3) I believe I reported this bug back a couple of years ago, but it remains.
Copy and paste an object, ex. a rectangle, and the dimensions are increased by
0.02 feet. So a 4 foot by 4 foot rectangle (in this case also a square)
becomes, 4.02 feet by 4.02 feet rectangle.
