Ruralguy Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 When using the polyline tool and toggling or selecting the "polyline by tangent arc" tool the arc immediately sets itself to wherever my cursor happens to be on the screen and is locked there unless I move my cursor to another location on the screen and hit the tab button. It will not let me enter a radius in the data bar nor will it behave dynamically (rubber-banding). Also, the line tool is not visible unless I drag it from point to point. If I select a first point and then a second point, no line appears. The same is true for the arc tools. I have checked this in new blank files and with other templates and workspaces. I have checked all the layer and class visibilities but no luck. I have reviewed the forum but searches yield nothing this basic. I must have inadvertently changed a setting somewhere because it did not behave this way before. Can anyone out there help a clumsy newbie? Thanks Quote Link to comment
Ruralguy Posted June 24, 2012 Author Share Posted June 24, 2012 Never mind. Finally found it. Some setting on one of the tutorial files changed my preferences when I used it. Thankfully, following Tamsin"s preference setup in her book got it back where it was. Quote Link to comment
