Straight line tool locked on infinity

Post by IAK » Fri Jun 19, 2020 5:29 pm

On opening a new projet the straight line tools ,horizontal and vertical , are displaying 41mm in the box but the line is actually locked on infinity. I cannot change the line length and no luck in the property editor either. on opening older project the same happens. I fear I wasted good money buying the update as it did not resolve the issue.

Thanks, that was rather easier than I thought possible.

Semo, it is not an issue ... And not a fix.
All line tools except Freehand Line have the options Segment/Ray/Infinte.
