I solved the issue by using the tab button which allows the user to set the line length. Still, this issue is something to think about.

I turn on the grid in the sketch tool and set the grid cells between major lines to 10. When I sketch a line from one grid to the next the distance is slightly more than a multiple of 10. What is going on here?</P><P><span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="JacobAalfs_0-1740591239697.png" style="width: 400px;"><img src="https://community.esri.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/126356i0C64BA62DE78EE46/image-size/medium?v=v2&amp;px=400" role="button" title="JacobAalfs_0-1740591239697.png" alt="JacobAalfs_0-1740591239697.png" /></span></P><P>&nbsp;</P> Wed, 26 Feb 2025 17:34:17 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-online-questions/grid-creation-distance-between-grid-lines/m-p/1589571#M63805 JacobAalfs 2025-02-26T17:34:17Z https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-online-questions/grid-creation-distance-between-grid-lines/m-p/1590112#M63821 <P>Hello&nbsp;<a href="https://community.esri.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/495763">@JacobAalfs</a>&nbsp;, could this be explained by the difference between&nbsp;Geodesic and Planar distances ?</P><P><A href="https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/tool-reference/spatial-analyst/geodesic-versus-planar-distance.htm" target="_blank">https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/tool-reference/spatial-analyst/geodesic-versus-planar-distance.htm</A></P> Thu, 27 Feb 2025 15:31:44 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-online-questions/grid-creation-distance-between-grid-lines/m-p/1590112#M63821 ChrisUnderwood 2025-02-27T15:31:44Z https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-online-questions/grid-creation-distance-between-grid-lines/m-p/1590136#M63822 <P>Yes, I suppose it could be.
