I was wondering if anyone else has noticed this.
Since the patch I've had a few of my builds appear with a few minor errors.
Now I'm a meticulous builder and very picky about how things line up. I have a prim mirror just to make sure things are *exact* even tho I can usually line things up within a few .01m by eye.
Now the errors I'm seeing are in regards to cut and profile cut on cylinders and tubes respectively. The error is that the numbers are changed from what I know they were set to.
An example is a tube that was profile cut to 0.094 / 0.87now showing as 0.097 / 0.87, and a cylinder that was cut to 0.301 / 0.699 is now showing up as 0.298 / 0.699.
The interesting thing is that it's a 0.003 change to both, so I don't know if that has something to do with it. The prims were very stable at these #'s for a good long time until this patch hit and now I noticed the gaps left by these changes.

Hollow Boxes and Cylinders at 95% are now 94.9%

in addition to what you mention, all existing builds (including in inventory) that I have using hollow boxes or cylinders at 95% hollow have changed to 94.9%. I created a bug report on the JIRA site; please add your comments and vote! A search on "hollow" will turn it up.

From: Gatz Morang in addition to what you mention, all existing builds (including in inventory) that I have using hollow boxes or cylinders at 95% hollow have changed to 94.9%. Nothing has changed except the degree of precision shown in the edit box. They were actually 0.949 before the recent update, but this was rounded off in the box, so you'd have to do a llGetPrimitiveParams to know that. I discovered this months ago, when I noticed prims exactly 2.5% the overall size of a "95%" hollowed prim (supposed thickness of the sidewall) didn't exactly line up with the hollowed prim wall. In fact, a "95%" still isn't, it's actually 0.949980, but it's closer than it used to be (0.949000).
