[Solved] Dimension lines do not look good

Post by bgma1961 »

Hi,

Dimension lines do not look good, it is missing a part of the beginning and the end.
The phenomenon occurs when I started using 0.18

There is still a bit left at the arrow.
Sometimes it will be as before and sometimes as the new one, and sometimes it will be a mixture of both, that is, on one hand, the new and the other, according to the old one. I do not understand why and I think it looks like crap.

However, it would be better if you could specify the length of the thumb space at the beginning and end as well as the length of the arrow when it is out of the measurement line. both in prefereces and as property.

I think the arrowhead not intersecting the extension line is quite nonstandard. The "relaxed" behavior referenced above is fine, but it looks as if the end result of the modification goes too far in "relaxing".

Yes, that's an error. There's a PR in the Q to correct it.

This should be fixed by git commit a077a6d1af.
