Select stops working

Selecting fades away during a session with ver. 6. Early on, I notice that I have to zoom in close to be able to select objects. Then, as a session proceeds, occasionally I can't select anything, by crossing window or direct pick. Closing the program and re-starting fixes it.Except for that, ver. 6 seems to be working very well.VM

  • Can't compare directly as I haven't upgraded yet, but in 5.0.0023 the flyover snap indicator changes to a dull brown after a while. Wonder if there is a connection, or if anyone else found this?

  • I find rather the reverse - sometimes I need to zoom out before I'm able to select objects using crossing window / window inside etc. All very odd - given there seems to be a bug with redrawing objects when zooming, maybe this is part of it?Other than that, v6 is very, very nice by the way. Noticeably quicker and more stable than previous versions - well done lads (and lasses).Phil BYork, UK

  • here's the same. I too have to change zoom slightly to get selection again...Not a big problem, just have to touch the wheelbutton a little.nuno

  • Thanks for the feedback above. Phil's hunch was correct about the failing selection being related to the implementation of the speedup for redrawing objects when zoomed-in.We could reproduce the problem and are working on a fix.This speedup has caused us some pain to master all side-effects, but all in all it still looks like a rather welcome improvement.Best regards,Hans
