The dimension input becomes strange. I'm trying to hit 1000, but if I hit 100,000, it turns into 10

The dimension input becomes strange.

I'm trying to hit 1000, but if I hit 100,000, it turns into 10.00?

Even when editing, unexpected dots appear on backspace or del keys. Is it just me?

Now I can see what you are doing, I tried it myself.

8 is not a valid value (too small), 50 is the smallest it will accept.

 

But as Ling mentioned, there is a time delay to allow you to input values.

If you type too slowly, it will assume you have finished, and will accept the value.

So when you type 85, if you pause long enough after 8, it will accept that as the value, but because it is too small, it will change to 50.

 

In the Work environment, you can set a longer delay.

If you set something like 5 seconds, you don't have to wait 5 seconds every time you change a value.

Just move on to another setting or 'OK' and that value will be accepted.

It will just give you a little longer to type in a value before it is automatically accepted.

Why would you want that to be 1,000? That’s the gap between the witness line and the element you are referencing in the dimension. I believe it’s also paper scale so the maximum likely locks out as 10mm as that would be a 1cm gap at 1:100.

I don't want 1000.
I tried to hit 100, but it was strange, so I just tried entering a larger number.
This is because the DOT keeps coming out and the backspace DEL key shows strange phenomena.

The above phenomenon disappeared when the pc was turned off and turned on, but it is not created even if I try to make 80%.
50% 500% and so on.
If you use the button, it will proceed as 50 75 100 125......
However, the input did not work, so I wrote it down on a notepad and copied it, and I was able to make 80%.

These three send a warning message when backspace. It seems that almost all warning messages are sent out when pressing the numeric keyboard.

Is it just me?
I first practiced with 26 4019 yesterday. ㅠㅠ

This is the result of selecting all and entering 3

I work with ctrl+v ctrl+c in notepad.

I'm most curious if others don't have this problem

This phenomenon only happened to the AC26 4019, which I used for the first time today. At 25, nothing happens.

Input feedback delay? Does typing faster or slower change anything? Do not get why AC inputs auto confirm...

Like I said, if you select the letter at 100% and press 8 to enter 85, it will be 50 and you will hear a beep.

yes! thank you.
I like your answer.
Could you please take me somewhere that beginners can understand?
Even if it's annoying, I always attach an image, so it's really easy to understand and quick to solve.
Thank you again.
I changed it because it is set to 0.00 seconds. ^^
