Locking the angle when moving or copying doesn't restrain the movement to the angle selected

I use lock angle a lot when moving or copying. I move the mouse horizontally or vertically and I lock the angle which I find easiar than locking Y.

I've been doing this since 1994 so it's kind of natural to me.

But now when I lock the angle it just locks to some random angle.

I've reset Work Environment and it didn't help.

Horizontal and Vertical Input Constraints are ticked On, Incremental Angle is On and set to 45º, Relative to horizontal.

Grid Snap options are turned Off.

I'm on ArchiCAD 22, any help would be appreciated.

I think this has happened a few times before but I can't remember how I sorted it.

Cheers,

Ricardo

Sorted, please ignore.

For some reason Absolute/Relative wasn't On for Δr & a in the Coordinates Palette...
