Hello (Newbie Alert)

Using the Rectangle Tool I clicked on the first point and entered the following coordinates: @7 5/8",4'-6 3/8

But when I use the dimension tool the I get 7 5/8 which is correct but instead of 4'-6 3/8 I get 3'5 5/8

Any clue is welcome.

Thanks

I figured it out. Coordinate inputs where incorrect of course. Using the following worked

@7 5/8",-4'6 1/2
