Draging geometry in sketch

Draging geometry in sketch

Draging geometry in sketch

(OP)
I'm using SWX 2009 sp3. it started suddenly and I can't find the option in the tools.

when I drag my sketch element itself (ex. line) it tries to produce a copy and gives me an error message after. but if I drag the point it works fine. how do you get back the classical behavior.

thanks,

RE: Draging geometry in sketch

I can't reproduce that effect.

What is the error message?

Do you have another machine to install the Copy Settings from?

RE: Draging geometry in sketch

This may not be the issue but has caught me out before so I will suggest it.

Check you don't have a 'sticky' SHIFT key.  Easy to check in notepad etc.
