Why Can’t I Select Multiple Entities?

By

So, there I was, trying desperately to beat the deadline to get a set of drawings completed and returned to the engineer in charge of the project, when I noticed that I could no longer select more than one entity at a time.

It was working minutes before hand, so what had I accidentally clicked on?  To say I was stumped, completely perplexed, was an understatement!

It turns out that I’d accidentally enabled Replace Current Selection Set feature on the Properties Dialogue Box.

By clicking on this icon again, I re-enabled the Add to Current Selection Set.

It’s a simple little thing, but one that you can spend quite a bit of time finding out just what you might have clicked on by accident.

The first time I used CAD, it was on a DOS PC with an 8088 processor, 640K of memory and a Hercules Mono Graphics Card... That, well that was a long long time ago. I switched to DraftSight the day it was released and haven't looked back!
