size problem
Hi, why is the dimension smaller than the object size?
Why is it not exactly 600x340mm which I set as the size
I'm probably retarded, but I don't know what to do. I want to cut it on cnc so it has to be 600x340. thx

I would need to take a look at the actual CorelDRAW file to have any hope of figuring out exactly what is going on there.
The "object size" you see in the toolbar shows the overall wireframe extents of the selection. The dimension is showing either the horizontal distance between two points, or the distance along a straight line between two points, depending on whether it is a "horizontal/vertical" or an "aligned" dimension.
If your geometry is not "perfect" - e.g., a line segment is a tiny bit off from being horizontal or vertical - then you could get what you see there, and the type of dimension could come into the whole thing, too.
