Problem description

Hello.

This is a very strange bug. And it will be hard to explain.

The artifact line in the screenshot below appears after an SVG export under very specific circumstances.
If I use in Section.Base.X Left002 then the SVG export will create the artifact line shown (the line is present in the SVG saved file). If I use other expressions, including expressions that reference aliases in my spreadsheets, for example Bottom002 as in the example below, then the bug doesn't appear. I've tried many times and I only get the bug when I use Left002 (the idea was to align the section with Left002 and Bottom002).

I've tried a lot of monolithic stuff followed by SVG export to try and isolate the problem and I only get it when I use Left002 (which doesn't mean that the bug only exists in that case).

Sometimes, after long hours / days of use without quitting, FCad starts doing weird things like this bug. In doubt, I quit FCad, relaunched it and tested the bug described here as the first operation after having the hand, and the bug was present.
