Well, try as I might, I still can't reproduce this. I am using the
release Build 5298. I have the Galaxy plugin loaded, it says it is
version Ver.0.6 Beta (31/5/00).

I start a new scene.
Click on Create Tab.
Click on RoundCube.
Click in the X component of translation.
Type 1, hit Enter. The cube moves to that pos.
Hit Tab, type 2, hit Enter. The cube moves accordingly.
I change the Width(X) field of the cube. 
I type many different numbers into the transform field, the rotate
fields, nothing.
I create a Galaxy and then reselect the cube and type all sorts of
different transform parameters, all the while everything works
perfectly.

Can you please try the above procedure and tell me if the problem
occurs?

did you move the local coords?  that's when i get the problem.  say for
example i want to move the cube to -.2069 in the Y axis and then rotate
around the global origin.  what i do is move the cube by the above
amount (keyboard), then move the local coords by the opposite amount
(using the mouse), unclick the local coord button, key in the rotation,
and blammo it returns the object to the parent's origin.  and by the
way, to answer your question in your other post, i removed all plugins
and then added them one by one (restarting moray each time of course)
and GalaxyMFC.dll was the problem.  i'm using build 2598, galaxy plugin
says v0.4.  that's funny, i thought for sure i had the new one.  let me
download the new one and see if problems go away.

OK, now I get it. The bad news is that it bombed on Build 5298. The
good news is that it works fine on my current build.  Now I need to
get the old build together and debug what's happening.

Why do you use both keyboard and mouse. Why not use the mouse alone?

I assume that's a typo (5298). Let me know if V0.6 solves it.

It's kind of difficult keeping up. I plugin authors let me know that
there is a new version I'll generally update the page....

> by the way, how is v3.3 coming?
Nicely, but slowly. But I think it'll be worth the wait.

sometimes i'm taking measurements off of something else and it is easier
to type it in, other times i make it up and i use a mouse.

Well, I managed to find that the GalaxyMFC is overwriting some
pointers in my app. I'm communicating with Keith to resolve this as
soon as possible.

Hi All,

I've posted a new version with the source to Lutz so that he 
can have a look and determine if the fault is still there.....

Regards,

Keith
