Lines can only be drawn at angles and disappear into back of view screen

Why when I open a 2d seed file and try to draw a line, the line only draws at certain angles and line dissappears into the back of the view port.  I am familiar with Microstation but a newbie when it comes to the initial workspace setup.

  • Hi Jacob!

    In a Forum like this it is helpful to state the Software and version you are using.

    It sounds like (just guessing) you have an Angle & Length lock turned On (Check the Tool Settings dialog that displays when you pick the Place Line tool).

    You may also have an Axis Lock on, and have the angle locked to something other than 90 deg. Any way you can do a screen capture, and insert it into a reply?
