  1. This should be a newbie question and seems pretty basic to me but I have not found anything in the tutorials/manuals yet that seems to address the issue I am having. I have a known design (my house) that I thought I would use as a training tool. So I have fixed dimensions that represent the exterior of the plan. I am able to create the general shape of the exterior walls but I am having difficulty editing them to their precise dimensions. 1] for example I have tried selecting the object and switching the Lock (Start, Center, End) feature however the behavior has not changed (see picture the start moves regardless) 2] I have read and followed the training pdf that explains walking around the dimensions in a clockwise fashion and I get to a point and either (it adjusts a previously set dimension on the opposite wall or it breaks the continuity of the walls completely) 3] I have read in the help files where I should be seeing in the "inline text field" icons for how the change is to be applied (see picture again) but as you can see my "inline text field" does not display those icons. So I have been looking at preferences and default settings to see if there is a toggle somewhere to display them but have not found anything. As always your help is greatly appreciate!
  2. Keith, you mentioned locking and unlocking dimensions. A) I'm a newbie trying to learn the software and I have been looking at the forum's and user guide to resolve my issue. I don't want to hijack this thread but can you show me how that is done? Can it be done to individual dimensions etc. Thanks
