      That's right. The long hand version is usually 5'-2 1/2", but the hyphen is often dropped. So Ruby treats it differently?

        Less and less clear
        in the Ruby console

        
        a = "5'-2 1/4".to_l
        -8.8976377952756
        
        

        Anyway, whatever is the notation, I still don't understand why 5'2 1/4 = 138.74 inches, whereas 5' is just 60 inches.

          I found the explanation finally.

          The model was in unit "decimal" metre

          So if you type 5'2 1/4 it is misinterpreted by SU. I guess it takes the 1/4 for 1/4 of a metre.

          Anyway, if the model unit is Fractional, then it works and the 3 notations below would give 62.25 inches

          • 5'2 1/4
          • 5' 2 1/4
          • 5' 2.25"

          I have done the changes and will republish soon

                    This would be great if it included the arc command!

                            Is it possible to have length snapping with DrawAlong? I can't seem to have it working . . .

                              In SU 2024, in a newly created and empty file, the first line (even formed from multiple edges) is not visible, only the second is visible, or if the file is not empty.
                              I tested in SU 2023 and 2022, and this bug is only in 2024.

                              Edit: It is a problem in my custom template that occurs only in SU 2024...!
                              The problem doesn't exist with the same template in SU 2022 or 2023... I don't understand yet...
