How to calculate accurate dimensions?
Hello

I need help to understand two basic questions. I searched on this forum but could not find an answer that matches my requirement.

Lets assume wall thickness is 1' which is 12"
from the grid at zero,
I draw a horizontal wall of 10'. Lets call this wall A
I draw another vertical wall of 5'. Lets call this wall B

Query1 - When I move wall B and place it over wall A at an intersection of 3' distance from left (zero grid) and then measure it with autodimensioning, it shows
3'01/2" from left instead of 3'
and 4'01/4" from top instead of 4'
How can i accurately place wall B over wall A so that I get 3' distance on the left and 4' distance from top?

Query2 - How to connect both the walls? When I select both walls and use connect wall feature, it moves wall B upwards and Join wall feature is greyed out.
