[FIXED] Distances in Projection Group

Post by kaktus »

This dysfunction can be counted as an error. :roll:

The Projection Group panel has options for specifying the position of individual projections among themselves.

The "Spacing X" option works fine for me. However, the "Distance Y" option is a real magic.
Determining the vertical position of individual projections has nothing to do with the declared parameter.

However, the problem is not tied to this one project.

Should I restore the previous progress status for you?

No, but this does not help of course.

Confirmed. See the attached file. I also changed the shape color. Black is too confusing.

Notice that the Right view seems to have a different height as well.

Yes,
I can see the flaw, it's definitely a scaling problem. The size of the element frame is also different.

I talked about these problems earlier with Chris but I didn't want to burden him additionally before releasing the official version 0.20.

I expect you are using a different version of FC than the latest. :?:
The projections you created have different line attributes. FreeCAD in older versions had these settings by default.

Note the picture in my first post. It does not have the effect you pointed out.

The screen grab shows you have "Auto Distribute" checked. This will position the Views based on the bounding rectangles of the largest View in each row/column. The SpacingX and SpacingY values modify the calculationed positions, generally to more widely space the Views.
