          Chris,

          I changed the units to centimetres (it's quite unconfortable for me to think in fractions of inches) with 4 decimal accuracy (I usually work with just 3).

          See attatched image and redraw those squares. πŸ˜„

            As I suspected... your square was not square.

            Do as Gai suggested or better yet, draw a line on one side of the square, not inside the component. Then rotate it to the other side and you will see for sure that they don't match.

            Sloppy Kris :esurp:
            Just funnin' with you. :ewink:

                Ah yeah, before any misunderstanding, the comma is used as a decimal separator in Hungary, not the dot.

                Gai...

                  wow.. I swear I used the inferences to check the corners... and then the measurements seemed to confirm I had the right lengths.

                  good job guys. and a good point to remember, it's almost always human error. bugs are few and far between.

                  (we should leave this here for a few days so people can see it's compeltetion. and then remove it from the bugs list.)

                    and just to add... another thanks. it's like getting the cure for a disease when someone fixes your problem.

                      Welcome, Kris.
                      And I know how that is. And sometimes the solution is just there.
                      I couldn't get used to these "architectural" units of yours though... πŸ˜„

                        as well you shouldn't get used to our imperial system... is archaic and irrational. 10 units of 1 and 0 that is the universal language, that... when and if ever we meet another life form, from another place, will be the language they know.

                          UNLESS they have 16 fingers ? Then it'd be in Hexadecimal... But it's true that on/off 1/0 binary is the simplest of all... Of course base 12 like feet/inches does have it's advantages - 1/2, 1/3, 1/4, 2/3 and 3/4 are all whole numbers - unlike metric/decimal where only 1/2 and assorted 1/10ths work... That's why long a go some one put 12 hours into the day and night and 360 degrees in a circle - 360 is a multiple of 12 and subdivides into lots of whole numbers - unlike gradians and radians...
