Problem with the distance of the lines or strokes

Design_Twenix

Hello! I don’t know if Figma has launched a new update but I have a problem with the distance between a stroke and other element. I’m attaching a screenshot.

If I draw a line and I measure the distance between that line with other element above or below the distance is different because Figma doesn’t take the central handler to show the distance.

Does anyone know how to fix this problem?

Thank you!

Use the Pen tool (or Rectangle) instead of a Line.

Even if I outline the stroke the problem is the same. If we need to use a button with auto-layout, devs can’t measure the real distance between the border and the box of the typography. 🤯
