3D Component OffsetHeight Input Units

Post by patrick_keys »

When using an imported 3D component, it is possible to set the offset height of the part. I have Protocase Designer set to use millimetres, hence the OffsetHeight field is displayed in mm. However, when I enter data in this field, the input seems to require inches - for instance, entering "1" will result in 25.4mm being displayed, "2" results in 50.8mm and so on.

Can this bug be added to the queue to be fixed?

You’re right — the OffsetHeight field currently interprets values as inches even when the app is set to millimetres. We’ve logged this as a bug for the dev team.
For now, you can work around it by entering the value in inches (1 inch = 25.4 mm) until a fix is released.
