Hello! When using the rectangle tool, i first clic on a point then move the mouse in the direction I want, then type the first measure, a come, then the second mesure. Only, the program will only use the first one I entered and use the cursor position to set the second measure.
Am I doing something wrong or how can I fix this?
First, drag out a rectangle and look closely at the dimensions displayed in the Measurements window. Are they separated by a comma or a semicolon? Use the same separator.
Make sure you are not adding a space after the separator and that you are not clicking in the Measurements window.
Thank you! I don’t know how or why it changed but it did. I’ve been using the coma since the beginning and now its a semicolon.
You probably need to use a semicolon between the two numbers.
Draw a rectangle and look what separator is used in the little box bottom-right on your screen.
it’s either a comma or a semicolon depending on your computers language settings.
Edit: Dave beat me to it…
Most likely your computers language or keyboard settings have changed…
Sounds like you changed your computer’s localization. Note also that the decimal separator for decimal numbers will use a comma instead of a period.
