I have a shape-fileshapefile with points and I want to create square buffers around my points 6x6. My coordinate system is in meters. I use R and for the buffers I use:

bufers=gBuffer(file, width = 6,capStyle="SQUARE",byid=TRUE).

My question:

When I load the buffers in QgisQGIS, I use the measure line plugin for my windows and instead of 6x6 I see that they are 11X11.

Is that normal?
