Oriented View Tool Troubleshooting

Anonymous — Wed, 31 May 2023 08:16:48 GMT

When i use the oriented view tool, my x and y co-ordinates do not enter correctly. For example. If i draw a square 1m x 1m on a 45° angle and then use the oriented view to have it shown straight, then I go to the polyline tool to draw the exact same square over the top of it, my dimensions are all messed up. does anyone now if i have to change some settings to correct this.

please see the attached screen shot for an example. The dimensions coming up in the shot are an exact trace over the top of the 1m x 1m square.

Your comments would be appreciated.

cheers

This was a bug that has been fixed in the latest service pack (Build 3259). Make sure you have got the current version.
