Distance Problem #12

Closed knightscove closed 7 years ago

knightscove commented 7 years ago

When I enter in a distance it creates a line 100's of miles long.

For example, if I enter in a course 127 feet long it draws a line from Maryland USA to the the middle of the Atlantic Ocean?

If I edit the entry in the list and change the distance to .000127 it creates a line a few hundred feet long.

Any guidance is appreciated. Thanks

What CRS are you using? The plugin only works with planar coordinate systems such as NAD83, not angular ones such as WGS84.

I am using WGS84. Thanks for letting me know what I had wrong for the plugin
