I've always changed sizes of circles by selecting a grip and typing the new radius.
However, now when I try this it increases the radius by that value.
Is there some setting I accidentally changed?
This is on AutoCAD LT but I assume such settings would be the same as for the full version. I am running 2019 version.

Hi,
check if your DYNMODE is OFF . then select your circle ( without command ) >> select a circle grip and watch your command line as below , any changes ?
Command:
** STRETCH **
Specify stretch point or [Base point/Copy/Undo/eXit]:

The command line is the same as usual.
I just opened the files to try again, and it's just the one file, and it seems to randomly choose whether to increase the radius by the value or set the radius to the value. If I keep stretching one circle, over and over and over again, doing the same exact thing, maybe 7 or 8 times out of ten it increases radius by the value but every now and then it does what it's supposed to.
I solved it, I'm an idiot lol.
I work with ortho on 99.9% of the time. With ortho on, it's impossible to snap track away from the quadrant of the circle in ortho direction, so I always get the absolute radius. But I had ortho off in this file at this time, so 7 times out of ten I'd drag slightly away and it would think I wanted to track from from the quadrant, which of course increases the radius by whatever value I type.
