Circular array went bananas

[Robin_Gangopadhya]

Help!

I made several layouts using circular array of a segment & created neat coils. First I draw a segment of known length, then select circular array. Give the center coords, angle to rotate( computed from s=ra) the number of items.

Until last night, it all worked like a charm.

This morning, all hell broke loose.

#1 for another set of coils, I entered the exact same center of the array: the program totally misinterprets it & draws the segments in a circle that is the not the coords entered.

#2 while the previous work rotated the segments to join end to end thus forming a contiguous set around the circle with center coords as entered, the array drawn this morning rotates the segments off the vertical.

It would seem that the program finds 2 points on the canvass having the same coordinates!!!

One it uses this morning is NOT the one I see in the bottom line on the center I entered!!!

I fear something gone wrong in the installation. But before I bring about more catastrophe by reinstalling, any one can help fix it?

I am on total hold for my pcb due this week…

Thnx

Almost certainly not an installation issue. But maybe you can post a video or screenshots of the issue to help us troubleshoot with you.

It is outright embarrassing to admit total screw up on my part that lasted 6 hrs!
For 6 hrs I consistently failed to note previous coords were 149.95, 105.3
I kept on entering 149.95,150.3 in all attempts the whole time.

Thnx for prompt reply though.
I found the mistake by bullheaded attempt to make the array manually. A daunting task. At one of these copy-rotate states, it came to my notice.
Sorry to have made people think for a non-problem .

Not to worry. If I had a nickel for each embarrassing error, I’d have a much smaller pile of circuits with blue wire soldered to them.
