Latest version Set line width not working in flyout menu

[ZEBtoonz]

I recently downloaded and installed the latest version update. Everything seems to be working fine. However, one thing is not. The Set line width box in the flyout menu does not allow typing in a custom number. I thought it might have been a problem with my Cintiq but it is the same on my main monitor.

The Set line width box in the main toolbar works fine. But the one in the flyout doesn't work. I can select a setting from the dropdown list but just can't type in something like 1.5. It doesn't matter if I use my number pad--with the numlock on--or the keyboard numbers. Another strange thing I just noticed, when trying to type in a number in the flyout box, I cannot type 1 or 2 or a period but I can type in 0,3-9 although none of these changes the width of the line.

This worked okay in the previous version so perhaps it is a bug in the new release? (7.1.2.18680)

Hi Zeb,

I can confirm same results here; can't type values in the Line Gallery line weight box.

Thanks, Fred! I am not alone in this world!

I'm having the same problem with Designer Pro X.

You mean people use that particular field? <g>

I would have never know it was broken, Zeb. But yep. At least in the latest XDP7 update it doesn't work and it also doesn't work in DPX.

Take care, Mike

[2] Click in the Set line box
[3] Type in number
[4] Press 'Enter'

I wonder if it's input driver related?

Hi Steve,

This is referring to the Line Gallery line width entry. It last worked in V6.
