manchest Posted December 18, 2008 Posted December 18, 2008 Hi I am using AutoCAD LT 2007 I have a problem when when selecting items with a window. If I select my items with a window, when I pan or zoom in the middle of drawing the window it only selects what you can see on the screen rather than selecting all the items in the window. this happens with both Left/right and right/left windows Is there a varible that can be changed? Thanks for your help Quote
GhostRider Posted December 18, 2008 Posted December 18, 2008 I don't believe there is anyway to correct that, it's like when you select items and then pan so some move out of the screen area then delete the selected items, the objects out of the viewable area do not delete, though they were once selected. I believe autocad cad only processes objects in the screen area... someone correct me if I'm wrong. Quote
smorales02 Posted December 18, 2008 Posted December 18, 2008 Ya I think it is just how acad works. Dont think there is anyway to fix it, for now Quote
dbroada Posted December 18, 2008 Posted December 18, 2008 concur. I zoom in and click one corner then pan to the other corner. Before clicking I zoom out until I see all the objects and only then click. Quote
LifeoRiley0 Posted December 18, 2008 Posted December 18, 2008 I haven't been able to find a way around it. Quote
User Posted December 18, 2008 Posted December 18, 2008 Everybody deals with it. I think it's just part of AutoCAD's character. Quote
wannabe Posted December 19, 2008 Posted December 19, 2008 As in the above. Just pick your corner and use the mouse to zoom out and in to the next corner; and finally zoom out before you select the last point. Quote
