Hello,
I can’t stretch copied dimension in DraftSight 2017. Does anybody have the same problem and does anyone knows how to fix this?

I have been using DraftSight for a few months before march 1st 2017. It was an older version (I think 2013) and everything worked fine. After I installed 2017 (beginning march) some commands and operations did not function as they were before. For instance: if I copy a dimension in a drawing, I am not able to stretch it any more. It’s like it gets frozen and it only goes for the copied dimensions. I don’t mean with the function “stretch”, that one works fine. I mean when I want to take the blue dot at the end of extension dimension line and drag it to some other point I get an “error” message on a command line. I tried to install the HotFix but it seems it doesn’t want to work with already installed 2017 version.
Please, how do I fix this?

The 2017 version available for download includes the hotfix.
I have not tried to duplicate your problem, but I suggest that you ask in the Draftsight forum.
