FPCP display of beams is incorrect - cut is offset

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hello,
I did an experiment using the column, beam, roof, and wall tools
and came up with something that is, to me, quite strange.
Please see attachment. Why does the beam tool show the
FPCP cut in a different location than in the other three tools ?
The thickness off all elements is the same, one foot.
Note that the displacement is exactly the difference between
the length of the hypotenuse and the length of the opposite side
of a right triangle drawn in the manner shown in the attachment.

I think that the cut is shown correctly for three of the tools but
is incorrect for the beam tool. If I am missing something
please let me know.
Thank you,
Peter Devlin
