Can't stretch wall in ArchiCAD25

Hi,

 

Can anyone explain why the wall doesn't stretch in width in Archicad 25 when I'm in the 3D view? It seems to have this cloud icon on my mouse and it can't snap to anything nor follow along a guide line. No problem with stretching in height and this isn't an issue I see in Archicad 22. Need help.

Make sure the 'Delta' button is on for 'relative' co-ordinates.

 

Because you are in 'Absolute' co-ordinates when it is off and you are in perspective view, the cloud just means there is no available position to stretch to.
