      I hope I'm doing something wrong here, if not, this is a hell of a bug.
      Pics shows a section slice brought into layout and scaled to 1:5.
      Dimensioning is fine, until I alter either the position or the extension lines.

      I got badly caught out with this, hard to spot on a dense drawing... client not impressed.

      Edit: Removed Layout file.

        You maked wrong view in Sketchup scene Sect-B. It not paralel to XY-plane. You must use Right-view in Camera > Standart Views.

          Thanks Yorik, that fixed it.
          But I cant see how the scene was out of plane, the section was taken from the model exactly on the green plane. I must have nudged the scene out of whack somehow. Something to watch out for. And very glad it was my error not a bug.

          Cheers

            Section is correct. But view to section have not perpendicular direction. I think it was an accident.
