it looks like the issue here is the value entered for the 'Enter plot offset
(x,y) or [Center] <0.00,0.00>: ' prompt. This prompt is looking for either
an x,y offset, or 'C' for center. It looks like the value entered was
'1.5'. A decimal used instead of a comma possibly.
I entered 1.5 and got the same results as below. When I entered 1,5 it
worked fine giving me an offset of 1 unit in the x, and 5 units in the y
direction.

that it must be something simple, but this is driving me nuts. I had no
