Rhino 7 - polyline not snap to the number typing

Hi all,

One quick question, recently I notice when I draw polyline/line, the curve is followed where my mouse is clicking instead of sticking to the numbers I type. Is there anyway to solve this?

Hello - please update to the most recent service release.

Thanks for reply Pascal! Unfortunately still not working, I think it’s probably because of some settings in the options? Do you have any clue where is this?

Hello - hmmm- can you please run the SystemInfo command in Rhino, and copy/paste the results here.

Please find info below. I just realized it’s probably because of the ‘Distance Constraint’. In rhino 6 when you draw curve/line seems only need to type in numbers and it will automatically use ‘Distance constraint’. But in rhino 7 it requires you to type ‘Enter’ after typing the number. Is that ture?

Hello - you just need to get the latest - the initial 7.4 had the bug you describe but it is fixed in a ‘hotfix’ release for 7.4 and in 7.5
