Create Linestring
Coordinate via offset line/segment

Select Line

Problem:

Decimal precision is set to .001 (units ussf)
Distance along will round to the nearest .01 and will not accept fraction inches.

This uses a station control, so you set the number of decimals in the station units.  This control does not accept inches but you can put the value in the offset control then copy the results back to the station.  The control does not accept math so that the user can enter 10+12 to get to station 1012 and not station 22.

I didn't realize the command was using stationing since the word changes from station to "distance along" when you select the line/segment. That makes more sense now, thank you!
