Blue Brick: imprecise rulers

[tmctiger]

Hi all,

I have a strange problem with Blue Brick:

I created a Layout (see here the Layout) with a width of 3.42m according to a ruler of Blue Brick. You can see the ruler in the linked thread on one of the layout images (top ruler in the image). I am now planning to create the table out of 3x 1.14m plywood and for visualizing reason I created 3 rulers with 1.14m to see where the plywood borders will be in the layout. But when I do this, I noticed that concatenating the three rulers result in a slightly to short overall length.

I dig a little bit deeper into this issue and noticed that the term 1.14m applies actually for a ruler with +-1 Stud. So you can end up with a little to short 1.14m ruler and also with a little to long one, but none matching exact 1.14m.

Did anyone else also observe the same problem?

Sidequestion: What software do you use for planing your layout? And when using Blue Brick, how do you mange to get exact measurements?

Without exact measuring capabilities, the Software renders useless, because it is all about to fit a layout into a given space, but when I can't rely on the values coming from the software, it is useless ... :(

BR,
