Hello,

via cad has problems of precision. For example a line in 330 degrees is in reality 329, xxxxxx. is it always necessary to type 6 numbers after the comma "330,000000" to have degrs really 330?
Shark, the same problems?

I don't see that on Shark.
"330" is "330", or "-30" !

Hello.

Did some Tests.
Was able to have 1 Time your result under Viacad V7 Pro Build 967 on
Windows XP, but never again, regardless of version and what i tried ...

Which Version/OS you are on ?
Maybe a round off/snap problem ?
What Units do you use ?
How many decimals ?
Do you use Komma or Point (localization) ?
How big is your snap radius ?

Repeat what you have done and try to keep track of these settings.
Maybe this thing can be tracked down ...
