Only Copy Objects on Y Axis Due to Coordinate Constraint

[Heftor]

I'm having an issue when trying to copy objects in ArchiCAD. Whenever I use the copy  or move command, the movement seems to be constrained to only the Y-axis, and I can't copy objects freely in any direction.

What I've tried:

• Checking if any special constraints are enabled

• Restarting ArchiCAD

• Trying different tools and elements

The problem persists regardless of which element I'm trying to copy. I suspect there might be some coordinate constraint setting that's been accidentally activated, but I can't find where to disable it.

See the picture attached

I see that the absolute X coordinate is active but i did not active before I start to copy anything.
I image it´s some kind of feature that I activated by mistake.

Thanks in advance.

If you are referring to moving/copying doors and windows, then they are constrained to the wall they belong to.

They can only move along the length of that wall.

Any other element should move/copy in any direction.

Thanks @Barry Kelly , I just finished a long week of projects and I was no thinking straight.

Thanks for the help and patience.
