ORIENTED VIEWS AND RECTANGLES.

[sedley]

Has anyone noticed that when you rotate a drawing on-screen the tracker gives inaccurate information with rectangular geometry?
Is this a bug?
It's very annoying.
You have to use the rotated rectangle to get the correct reading.

PLEASE FIX THIS.

I do not fully understand what you are trying to say.
Could you elaborate more, perhaps also include a screen shot?

Here is a screen shot.
The view is rotated.
Notice the dimensions on the rectangle.
Now look at the tracker information, measuring bottom left to top right.
This should have read 3'x4'.

[Laszlo Nagy]

OK, now I get it.
You have rotated the View, then you are trying to create a Slab with the Rectangular Geometry method. This is when the Tracker gives X-Y dimensions according to the Rotated orientation of the Floor Plan and not the normal horizontal-vertical orientation of the screen.
Yes, this looks like a bug to me.
I will report it to Graphisoft.
