Hello there,
I'm making a frame using pipes using DIN2448 as my choice of pipe. When i place it on my frame the length of my pipe is longer then my sketched line, it's exactly (Outer diameter / 2) longer.
After looking at it closer in the part itself there is a parameter "G_OFFSET_START" & "G_OFFSET_END"
The "G_OFFSET_START" is driving a plane that makes the extrude (Outer diameter / 2) longer.
Why is this? Should my pipe not be exact in length?
Is this used in all standard parts? Or should i just choose another standard than the DIN2448?
Greetings.
