Glitch when using SketchLines.AddByTwoPoints

[Anonymous]

I snapped up some code for drawing lines in Sketch.

Here's the line I am referencing.

oSketch.SketchLines.AddByTwoPoints(oTransGeom.CreatePoint2d(0, 0), oTransGeom.CreatePoint2d(4, 0))

The glitch is, the coordinates of the points measure metric.

The line measures 1.5748031 in.

I expected it to measure 4 in.

My file is set to inches units.

What am I missing here?

Thanks

While programming, linear dimensions are always in cm, degrees in radians, so you need to multiply 4 with 2.54. as a metric man, i'm happy with that 😃

i was always wondering why they chose cm instead of a proper SI prefix. just to add another unnecessary conversion. all technical people i know of use mm. i would deffo be more happy with that. cm is only used by tailors and carpenters
