When I open draw X5 and a new page, I put an object on that page but it does not tell me where that object is on the page. When I put in a X and Y dimention it will move that much and resets back to zero. Is there a setting some where that I have to change? In X3 it whould tell me where the object is.
It does on mine show position and size of object in two places... lower left along the bottom of screen and up in the activity-command bar top left of page... X and Y coordinates, size (inches in my case)... look through your settings in Tools, Customization, and you may see something that needs to be turned on.

I looked in the customization menu but could not find nothing to change any settings. Its been 2 days and the person from corel teck didn't get back to me. Maybe they don't know what is wrong. Thanks for the help.
Lower left in X5 is either Cursor Position or Object position. Click on the little black arrowhead to choose which you want to use.
Just try clicking on some options in the Toolbars and or Customization to get some Command bars and Tool Sets into place where you can see them.

The command for XY position can be found here... It should be showing on the Property Bar:
tion\commm
Press Alt+F7 and disable "Relative position", then choose the point of your object that you want to know position (ie top center, left bottom, etc)
