Sorry, It was just a rounding issue.

ADT3.3 Acad02
Hi All,
I have an AcadDimAligned who's start point X coordinate
is 0. Sometimes I am getting the above E value when
capturing this value instead of 0. Not always sometimes
it works fine. All the work is done in the WCS.
Portion of code is below. All it does is create a SS of all
AcadDimAligned on a certian layer "ZFrontDim" in this
case. Then loops to find lowest X coord of all dim's start
points.
Anyone know the problem?
Thanks,
Paul
[code]
Dim ssFront As AcadSelectionSet
Dim i As Integer
Dim dimElevation As Double
Dim dimAli As AcadDimAligned
Dim controlX As Double' I tried a variant as well same results.
Set ssFront = mADTools.ssDims_ByLayer("Dims", "ZFrontDim")
For i = 0 To ssFront.Count - 1
If TypeOf ssFront(i) Is AcadDimAligned Then
Set dimAli = ssFront(i)
If i = 0 Then
'getting above E value here sometimes. Checking
'the dims startpoint on the screen gives proper
'X coord which is 0
controlX = dimAli.ExtLine1Point(0)
End If
If dimAli.ExtLine1Point(0) < controlX Then
controlX = dimAli.ExtLine1Point(0)
Exit For
End If
End If
Next i
