Dynamic input not correct?


Recommended Posts

Posted

I'm still trying to setup the new machine with 2012 like the old machine w/2010. I realized a few problems was the MS keyboard that had enhanced functions. (since returned to default) However, when entering dynamic input it is always wrong. I have dynmode set to

 

still if I use the rectangle tool and input 10, 20 I should get a 10" x 20" rectangle. I get nothing of the sort. I think it may be reading it as coordinates as opposed to dimensions.

 

Answers, suggestions?

What is on the command line?

 

Command: _rectang

Specify first corner point or [Chamfer/Elevation/Fillet/Thickness/Width]:

Specify other corner point or [Area/Dimensions/Rotation]: d

 

Specify length for rectangles :

 

Specify width for rectangles : 20

 

Specify other corner point or [Area/Dimensions/Rotation]:

This is what is there

 

Command: _rectang

Specify first corner point or [Chamfer/Elevation/Fillet/Thickness/Width]:

Specify other corner point or [Area/Dimensions/Rotation]: 10,20

 

Previously that is exactly how I drew a rectangle.

 

Click rectangle icon, click a position in the drawing, then input dimensions e.g 10, 20 into dynamic onscreen boxes.

 

Seems this is only a problem with the rectangle tool. Doing the same with circle or polygon works correctly. this has to be something with the setup?

Solved. DYNPICOORDS was set to . I set to and everything works normally--I think.

My DYNPICOORDS = 0 and I still have to use "D" and then input the dimensions.
