Moving by X, Y Coordinates

Anonymous

So somewhere along the way, i think i must have hit a shortcut accidentally that has changed the way I can enter distances when moving things. It used to be that i would be able to type in the distance based on a given direction. Now however, it asks for X and Y coordinates when moving, which causes some mistakes when I'm not aware of it. How can I switch it back?

When moving something right mouse click and you can choose 'Prefer X Y coordinates in tracker' or 'Prefer Polar coordinates in tracker'
