Node Editing

[Mike Pennington]

Hi all.
I am having a problem with placing a new node where I want it. I add the node, go to the angle and distance portion. I add the angle and distance. Nothing happens. Probably something stupid on my part, but it worked great in the cad class. Does not work here. I have Cad nine full version.
Thanks,
Mike

In Node Edit you have Absolute, all Chords based off of 0,0 and Relative all Chords based off of previous node. If using Relative the direction of the arrow dictates the previous node, make sure you are not trying to move the node with the arrow originating from it, which you can change any node to a start node by selecting and right clicking and mousing over the arrow icon. Clicking on a node and if you are using distance and angle entering the parameters will move it from the previous node based on the arrow direction.

I have tried everything on both computers. Doesn't work.

probably need to have someone log into your unit to check it out. Hopefully after you enter your coordinates in the dialogs you are pressing ENTER on the keyboard.

Tried it all. No avail. Watched video and no dice.
Thanks,
