double click edit

Jay Petersen

After loading all my acad scripts and ARG onto v14,   it seems double click edit does not function at all for non-text entities (lines arcs ...).   text works correctly,  but attributes need 3 clicks.   

I have set pickfirst =1,  dblclkedit=on

what other variables might i need to fix ?

thanks,  JP

The 'customize' dialog has a mouse section where double-click actions are defined. For most entities, the defined action is just to open the properties window - if you keep it open anyway, this will give you the impression of nothing happening at all. So just edit these actions to your liking. That said, I don't know what recent AutoCAD versions do on double-clicking a circle, and if BricsCAD will offer the same functionality out of the box.
