Inventor Offset Tool Not Working Properly

Anonymous

Hello again,

 

Could you also work with your team on the Offset tool not working correctly? When I type in my initial amount to offset, the line just drops wherever and I have to re-submit the Dimension before it goes to the correct location. This is an important tool and could be a costly mistake if unnoticed.

 

Thanks!

Hi! There is indeed an issue here. A fix has been worked on an internal build. It will be available in 2018.3 Update. When the Beta becomes available, please feel free to try it if you are a Beta user.

Many thanks!

Thanks! I did figure it out, my Snap was on but this still shouldn't happen.
