Line size problem

Anonymous — Wed, 21 Oct 2020 12:55:54 GMT

Hello everybody,
when I draw a line the command asks me to specify the starting point and the length; I enter the value and confirm but I get a line of a different size than the one requested.

how can i solve?

Thank you

Is a dimension placed?

If yes, double click on the dimension and edit to desired value.

If no, the place a dimension of desired value.

It sounds like your computer operating system is Windows 7. Windows 7 does not support Fusion 360 completely and this is one of the symptoms. You can search the web for possible workarounds including using the dimension command AFTER placing the line.
