Try resizing something, or using the alignment tools. I just ran into this, again, this week, when I was trying to fix a vertical line. The line is too short, so I changed the length. The line lengthened, UPWARD. So I then changed the top of the line, thinking that would help me except the bottom stayed and thus the line was shorter, again, but I missed that the "resize" checkbox was unchecked - because, if you don't have "resize" checked, then when you change a coordinate of an object, it just moves the object.
What's even weirder about that is that normally, now, when I create a line, if I resize it I get the even more bizarre behavior of having the line lengthen in BOTH directions with the center fixed, which is generally followed by my shaking my monitor and screaming at it. Now, go try to use the equalize/align/distribute tools. Throw three or four objects on a card and use them. Is this also where I get to remind everyone about LC's bigotry toward items? You know, because ",,a" is three items, but "a,," and ",a," only counts as two? On Thu, May 15, 2014 at 10:42 AM, Devin Asay <devin_a...@byu.edu> wrote: > Thanks for the responses folks.
