I have been working on a part for a few days now and have
come across a strange thing. Several features in the model are
defined using a sketch on one of the standard (front, side, top)
planes which is then extrude cut from an offset to that plane to an
offset to that plane. In other words, a sketch on the front plane
is being offset a distance away from the front plane, then extruded
towards the front plane by a distance that is determined by a
lesser offset from that plane. The pros and cons of this method can
be debated seperately but the result of this is a correctly modeled
feature with a dimension that is mirrored. I have attached an image
below to better show what I am talking about. Is this a bug or is
it a direct result of the method I am using?
The first picture shows the settings and sketch I used to set up the feature, the second shows the resulting mirrored dimension (0.519 dim)
