Door Width Precision Error

Hi there,

I customized a simple arch. door family and using it to create openings in structural walls. I've a precision problem with door width. Doors which should be 1010mm in width are ending up 1009.99999948 mm. Can you check the attached model and help me finding out the culprit. Thanks

I set the default value of the width to 1010mm in the family editor and problem resolved.
But..
I know that precision issue is inherent to the computers but these atomic level errors cause wrong results of common functions such as clean joins of walls to floors.

If there is a measurement difference of 1e-10 mm between faces, clean join can not be formed and even align doesn't work..

I think some kind of smart rounding solutions must be implemented in order to avoid such problems.
