Door display wrong dimension (automatically minus 56mm)

Anonymous

Hi everyone,

For some reasons, my door displays the dimension less 56mm than original dimension. So for example, my door width is 1440mm, the display number on 2D plan will be 1384mm. When you click in the door, the dimension still stays the same on Door Selection Settings, it's just the name that changed.

Hello Anh le,

Do you check about which kind of dimensions you are talking about ? One of the first door parameters deals with it. There are 5 or 6 different ways to input door dimensions.

Hi Christophe! It's the width of the door, I have attached a photo. As you can see my width is 1440mm but in the dimension marker the number is less 56mm. The dimension marker number will be changed in response to whatever number I put it for width.
