Changing numerical values in any object not working correctly

[kittmaster]

I'm trying to create new parts and I want to adjust things like hole diameter, body length, offset height.

When I go to change the numerical values......I highlight the numbers and start typing my new value and it just adds random numbers to the fields....

The only way I can change the number is to click and highlight the digit and type the single number I want.

So if 24.00000 is in the field and I want 1456.342455 I have to click on each digit of the 24.00000 and alter it ONE DIGIT AT A TIME to get my 1456!!!!!!!!!!!!

This happens for board wizard, component wizard......anything that requires the changing of the numberical value is completely messed up.

What is going on here......all the basic functionality seems to be completely screwed up........I can't get anything done with all this bug chasing and interference.

It becoming more than an annoyance.

Chris,

Yes... in multiple numeric fields (especially the ones that are applying changes in the background while you type) typing the number becomes unefficient... I do know that R&D is working on this.

Currently (if it helps) you can select all the number, type the digits before the punctuation, then hit the "." mark, and then move the cursor to the precision digits. This is what I currently do.
