I added a point (A1a) 0.5cm away from A1, added it to the pattern piece and left the SA at the default. It’s not perfect, but it’s better. You can decrease the distance to much less, if you wish.

It’s a fuzzy math thing… it doesn’t seem to like the 0.375 for the A1 after allowance. I just bumped it to 0.38 and it works. A 0.005" is not going to make a descernable difference. Actually bumping it to 0.03751 even works.

Technically it would be better if it’s a vertical vent, as the allowance hangs better. I always would cut the vents at a slight angle.
