Okay,

  I've done some searching and have not been able to locate anyone else who has had this problem, so I'm worried that I'm missing something...  let me explain:

The equation is driving spacing for a linear pattern and works out as such:

"D3@TiePattern" = ("RD4@Annotations"-5.50)\(iif("RD2@Annotations"<72.00, 3, 4))

...or

spacing = 75.92 / 4

problem is that solidworks is solving it at 19", not the 18.98 that it should be... and that's causing an issue for what I'm doing over here.

So I guess, I'm left wondering what the heck I could be doing wrong or missing over here...  I've checked my unit settings, they're good, and if I set the value manually at 18.98 - SolidWorks will space them at exactly 18.92, not 19".

Any ideas?
