athatcher77 Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 Hi, I am a self taught AutoCAD user and am a typer/mouser. I am using AutoCAD 2008 and I have inadvertantly changed a setting that I would like to change back. I used to be able to select an object, then type M enter and I could move that object. Now I have to type M enter first and then select the object to be moved. This change is also preventing me from double clicking on Mtext to edit it. Help!

hotrodz0321 Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 sorry....easier way to go about it is to type PICKFIRST..then 1 as your variable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOB'27T Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 If that doesn't work, check to see if PICKFIRST is set to "1" Oops, you beat me to it!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
