I'm having a blonde moment.
Previously if I wanted to draw, say, a rectangular slab / polyline / fill / anything, I would select my start point, type X 1000 Y 1000 and hit enter, and I would have a 1m x 1m shape. Now it is going to 1000x1000 from Project Origin. I have "Show X-Y Coordinates relative to User Origin in Tracker" checked in WE, and have both delta buttons checked ON in co-ordinates palette. I can't find the setting to change this 'cos it's been so long since I've had to.
If I select an element, drag, start point, X 1000 Y 1000 enter, it works correctly and moves it relative to the start point, not project origin.
Embarrassing after 2300 posts to be asking such a basic question, but can someone please point me in the right direction.

s2art,
Glad to help. I know right what you mean. Plus if those are all your kids in that pic, then you have an even better excuse. I have two and that is enough for my attention to handle.
BTW - I have appreciated your posts since coming here about a year ago.
Cheers!

I reckon you're both having blonde moments!
Tabbing or entering X or Y has got nothing to do with it.
Happens to the best of us!
