Backwards sketch dimension display bug

[NateLiquidGravity]

How many other people are seeing the backwards sketch dimension display bug? When will it be fixed?

Nate - I can't promise when it'll be fixed.

When it occurs a small roll of the mouse scroll wheel causes the display to update and the text to be displayed the correct way round.

Yes I can flip the sketch view or zoom, but it is still a near constant annoyance.

I had that too but there is a cure. It's a font problem, Nate. For example, I use Arial Unicode MS and it doesn't do that. As a temporary fix you can change your font until it's fixed with either a patch or v28...

 

[DavidJ]

Hmm... changing font doesn't seem to help on my system.

 

[Ex Machina]

Yeah, most fonts do that. Try that Arial Unicode MS

 

[DavidJ]

I did.

Tried to re-create it but I can't. Do you know/remember what is the default font for Alibre v27?

 

[DavidJ]

Microsoft Sans Serif, 9 pt. I believe.

 

[Ex Machina]

Hmmm... OK. Now I can't get it to do that again... But I remember that when I first installed v27 I had that issue. Then I started playing with fonts for an unrelated reason and saw that for some of them it doesn't do that.

And now I can't find a font that does it. In any case, without any special treatment on my side other than changing the font, it works correctly for me... But my system is really weird because for Alibre to use the RTX3060 I have to set it to the Radeon APU and vice versa. Tried it through Alibre, Windows Display settings, and Nvidia Control Panel. Same behaviour.

I tried changing the font but no luck fixing it. I'll play with the settings again later.
