Wrong LenY value

Hi,

Why does the LenY value does not show the correct value?

Thanks in advance.

My component options are also not visible/shown in the dialog.

I opened up the Ruby console, and the problems where solved.

Sorry I thought is was fixed, but it is not.

You can see the ruler and LenY do not match.

The first “child” (nested) component is an Auto Cut-&-Glue compo. That may be realigning the Origin and thus, throwing off the Axes Definitions.

fix the lost references and repost

I removed the glue, but still no success. I removed the lost references.

@pcmoor If you can check for me, thanks in advance!

For some reasons all my newly created dynamic components have the same problems.

I set the height 100cm and the result is 39.37007874015748 cm

I hope somebody can figure this out with me, so I can continue creating my models.

Post your component. Your formula converts your height value to inches. I don’t know if the “cm” at the end of your post was added by you.
What are your settings for the A01_height parameter? I would set it to be Centimeters and to display the end user’s units.
Is the “Display units format” box checked in your model’s Modei Info>Units dialog? An old. old, still standing bug causes non-inch length calculations to fail if it is not checked.

First is was set to text, if I set it to cm it will show correct in the attributes.

But the component options are not shown.

Restarting Sketchup seems to resolve the not showing option problem

I have some custom parameters which were set as text. Setting them correctly to cm solved the problem that the results was shown in inches.

Sketchup seems a little buggy. Sometimes the options are not visible and sketchup has to be restarted.

The same goes with placing a dynamic component not snapping to the right point on axis.

Restarting sketchup also solves this.
