      Hi
      I have been watching the tutorial Cannikin-JointsJointsJoints7 99 video and see that when drawing a shape using the Line tool, the line is pulled out and he then types in the length he wants. When I do this I can type in the length but the line doesn't size itself to the length I typed. It stays as long as I have drawn it. Why is this and what setting must I do to make this happen?
