line troubles...

[R.Reynolds]

I think maybe the heat has gotten into my C A program.. just over the weekend, catching up on some as- builts, discovered that while editing lines , any lines...
that when I would click on one to shorten or lengthen it the other end would do just the opposite. to say it drove me nuts is putting it mildly...
a call to support suggested a re install...but I m busy and in a hurry .. will do it soon
one other item..printing out the drwgs ( after carefully correcting numerous lines) showed that about 1/4 of the dimension numbers were upside down on the prints but not on the screen..
I havent even called support back on this.. I m sure they will be asking what sort of strong drink I ve had ( just Dr Pepper for me!)
I m still on X1.4.7 and upgrading soon..
anyway this has me puzzled more than anything else .. X! has been a fine well performing program..
thanks for any input ya 'll might have .. its much appreciated

Go to the behavior settings and set it to default. That will probably fix it. It sounds like you have it set to concentric.

You're welcome. I see this problem all the time. Something to remember...whenever you move one end of something and you notice the opposite end moving too, that generally means your behavior is off and set to concentric. I always keep it set at default unless of course I'm moving something concentrically. BUT then you have to remember to set it back to default.

The first time this happened to me I thought I was going to blow a gasket. Now I just change the oil and check behaviors.
