My NX 9.0.3.4 started doing a strange thing, if I do a "Move Face" and try to drag the face, it only wants to do it in 5" increments. I can't get it to just drag like normal. If I type in a specific distance it still works but the visual drag will only allow increments of 5. Same with the offset command, but that one only lets me drag in increments of 0.25. It never did that before, I'm not sure what has changed. I didn't do any updates recently. Is there a way to fix this?

Try clicking the reset button on the move face dialog (circular arrow on the upper right).

This may be a silly question but is snap to grid perhaps not switched on?

No matter if I'm zoomed in or way out it does the same thing. I clicked the reset button on the move face dialog and that didn't fix it. The grid snap is not on.

If I'm in an English file and zoomed in, it won't even show the drag preview because the first snap increment is larger than my screen size.
