Why are the elevations wrong?
I drew my house and put in a lot of features, like pipes, months ago. I recently came back to finish drawing in more pipes. But for some unknown reason, the elevations are all wrong. For example, a pipe I drew months ago has an elevation of 53. It is 53cm off the floor. I want to draw another pipe coming out of that pipe. So I grab a pipe from the sidebar and drag it into the floor plan. Then I set the elevation to 53. But the new pipe does not appear 53cm off the ground. It's way higher than that. So now I have to guess by trial and error what height to set the elevation for this pipe at. It takes a long time to determine what SweetHome thinks the elevation should be. It's like that for everything I'm adding into the plan now. Instead of appearing at the correct elevation, they're appearing at unknowable elevations.

Is this because I updated the program to version 6.3? Does that have anything to do with it?
