Selected Objects Size(Here is my problem)
Selected Objects Size X: & Y: will not allow me to enter any values. I was able to enter values for the rows and columns and the offset.

Re: Selected Objects Size(could not enter a value)
Object size is informational only (try creating two different objects; select them; and view the (combined) object size).
Are you thinking of using the array copy to resize the circle? Resize it first with the Resize tool then array the resulting circle.

Presumably you mean this video -
As Steven says those values are display only, They just tell you the size of what is selected. Set the circle to the size you want it before doing the array copy.

Re: Selected Objects Size(could not enter a value)
I'm trying to create a spoil board, based on a video, "Designing and creating a CNC wasteboard", on YouTube. .
Amana Tool 46017-K 1/4 (Which is a (3 flute)
1. Create a countersink for my T-Nuts.
2. Drill quarter-inch holes for the bolt.
Using the Linear Array to distribute the rows and columns.
I was planning to use the Amana database for my speed and feeds.
I might mention, which is probably obvious, I'm as green as they come. But, my computer history starts back with RadioShack. My first computer was a custom with a massive 20Mb hard drive, Seagate. Drive cost me $795. The base computer itself was from an upstart company called Compaq and we know what happened there. It's been a while. Oh well, I just thought I would throw that in.
But when it comes to CNC, I do know how to turn it on, ha. (

Re: Selected Objects Size(could not enter a value)
Before I opened the window for the linear array I opened Drawing-Draw Circle and entered my X & Y location and the diameter of 0.312.
Somewhere in the many YouTube videos, I thought I saw something about having a dimension for your workpiece that was bigger than the capability of your machine. I'm not sure if the 30-inch width that I'm using is outside the Sharks HD4 capabilities. But if it were would that have created a problem that I'm having.?
