CorelDraw Problem - Help Please

[James & Zelma Litzmann]

I have somehow messed up my CorelDraw. It will not measure a square box in anything except full inches, not quarter or half sizes. For instance I am trying to make something 2.5 inches and it keeps going to 3 inches. I have shut down my computer and started over and it still does the same thing. Anyone . . . help please?

Give this a try. I think I was able to duplicate it on my X6. Go into Tools, Options, Workspace, Edit. Look at "Drawing Precision" and see what number it has. My number is 3 and if I changed it to 0, the shapes I was trying to make changed to full numbers instead of .5 or .25.

Sounds right to me, it sets the number of decimal places it will accept for measurements

You are my hero!!! It worked like a charm and now I can quit driving myself nuts. Thank you so very much, I really, REALLY appreciate it.

Do you know what I love about the Internet? You can ask a question and kind souls will reply in good faith. You might not always have the right answer first time but with synergy and a fair wind, a lot of issues can be resolved. It's a measure of how kind people really are and a big thumbs up to everyone who made it possible.
