WTF? Drawing Lines in Mastercam 2020...

In 2020 I can somewhat do what you're saying, but ... when I attempt to create a line tangent to a corner rad.

In prev versions I could select the rad to the closest side I wanted to create a tangent line from and then enter say 60 degree, it would create that.

Now in 2020, If i want a tangent line from the top side of the rad, I have to enter the angle first, get to the closest edge of my rad, and then draw out from there otherwise the line ends up on opp edge (like in attached).

Guess I never noticed this until now.

My situation is different. Create a line and instead of Freeform, pick Vertical or Horizontal. That is how my line creation is, but my Freeform is like Vertical and Horizontal combined.
