I'm going through the video tutorials. I'm on part 3 right now and I'm having trouble with what she's explaining at about 4:50. She says to use the corner and move. The problem is that when I go to move, it only selects that the two intersecting lines (the literal corner) and moves only that, so it distorts the shape. I can click on the rectangle itself and move it fine. The problem with that method is that it is ignoring the vertical guides she had us create for accuracy. If I cannot align the rectangle with the guides, then the guides are useless.
Is this no longer the way it works and so is there another way? I believe this may be the case because in the very first video, she tells us to draw a rectangle. She says to click to start then click to end. That's not true, at least for me it isn't. I just click, drag and release. Her instructions didn't work for me. It only makes a second rectangle, even if I wasn't finished with the first.
I'm just trying to understand how to align those windows properly since I'll be using this for woodworking.
Update:
I am SO angry at myself! I watched that section five times and missed using the select tool before the move each and every time. Phew! I feel much better. My OCD was bothering the heck out of me over that.
