X, Y, R and A inputs not working in 8.1

[Constantin Catana]

X, Y, R and A constraints in 8.1?
I can't use them anymore. Is something changed that I have to know ?

kind regards,

They still work as always. Are other keyboard commands working for you?

Check CapsLock status - some shortcuts do not work when CapsLock is on.

Yes ...

CTRL Z, if using non-English keyboard where Z and Y are exchanged, has to be CTRL Y ...

Naaasty.

I know that Z and Y are exchanged in Romanian mode. What about A and X ? Not works also ! And Caps Lock is not active !

My previous version was AC 8.0 R3 and this capabilities worked. Few days ago I was uninstalled the old version and installed 8.1 and ... surprise ! This feature no more available.

Usually I clean also the registry files from old version components, before installing a new version. But this time I didn't, I just removed from add/remove programs. In installing process of 8.1 appeared a message window with an error. I had a few choices: "ignore", "cancel", "retry", etc. and with "retry" option, the process continued.

The program starts normal, I can do anything except this important feature. I reinstalled the application (with the same error message !), restarted the computer etc... but nothing.

I will try to reinstall with classic cleaning of the registries. Can be something else ?

Now I have installed both versions 8.0 R3 and 8.1 on my computer. In the first, works coordinate constrains, in the second NO.

Is something about XP ?

Hi Constantin,

I was reading through past problems on AC-Talk and discovered that your issue may not have been solved. Any success since?

BTW. Did you try cleaning preferences files?
(they are in: \Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Graphisoft)

What is the error message you get during installation?

Cheers,
Greg.
