Orthomode ignoring Specified Units for Distance?

[Anonymous]

I was attempting to draw a 5x5 square, but even if I was using orthomode, it seem to disregard any units I specified to move from the starting point. In this situation, I selected the line tool, chose my starting point, shifted my cursor to the right, pressed "5," and pressed "Enter," but there was no line going 5 units to the right. Instead, there were no visible changes.  In terms of settings, I just had my grid and orthomode activated.

I'm not sure if there was something wrong with my settings, since I saw zero degrees listed near my cursor after pressing "Enter." In addition, I attempted to do the same thing with both autosnap and osnap on. Plus, I also had recently activated "filedias" since I was struggling with previous drawings and I have the student version. 

If I was not following the proper procedures to drawing lines within specific units with orthomode, please let me know. Thanks in advance!

I guess the line is drawn, but its too small to be visible with grids turned on. Try turning off the grid and the use command "zoom" and select extents for the line to be visible. You could use "RECTANGLE" command to draw 5x5 square. Type in command "REC" and pick a point, now select "dimension" and specify the length and width and the click again to end the command.
