Make sure you have the correct dimension geometry selected.

Thanks Barry.
The problem is that the triangular icon for any "direction" is not there to select and nothing happens when I click on the icon with the grid and arrows. how do i get the triangular icon to come up?

In version 20 I notice you can't just click on the button to get the pop-out, you have to hold the mouse button for a fraction of a second.
Other pop-out buttons seem fine with a quick click.
Does that work for you?
