I am trying to use edit form on a freeform shape. When I double click on the centerline I want to edit the form and make it wider in the middle. However, I can only click and drag it but not input a specific value such as 15 mm. In the tutorial that I am watching, the directional inputs are visible next to locate. How do I fix this so I can also add specific value inputs?

HI!

I guess you are selecting the symmetry plane instead of the geometry.

Try to select a node in the geometry and drag it.

Hi!
It does not matter what kind of transformation I try to make or if I select the plane or node. I still do not get the option of adding a specific input on how much I want to transform it in i.e. the Z-direction.

I have uploaded the part. It is probably an application setting or something that can activate it, but I can't find it.

Hi! I believe it was a known bug in 2023 RTM version. Please install 2023.1 update. The issue should go away.

Many thanks!
