Formula / Constant in v19


WPONG

Recommended Posts

Hi Will,

One of many new nice features in v2019 is the requested function to not having to switch to "formula mode" per session.

 

You just type your formula in the dimension input box!

Thanks Jonas --

Hmm. Thinking this was the case, I tried to enter an expression "35.5*2" for a cylinder diameter, the dimension kicked me out of edit mode, and retained the previous value of 40.0. As I recall, it kicked me out at the "*" keystroke. (I can confirm this evening when I'm back on my machine if such confirmation is helpful).

Okay, I believe I've isolated the problem.

 

When I type an expression into the size field, things work fine if I use the *number pad* on my machine to type the operator symbol.

 

If instead I use the regular keyboard to type the operator (for instance SHIFT+8 for "*"), I get kicked out of the size field with that keystroke. Bug?
