walleighworld Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 Hello again, This is something that has plagued me for quite some time: occasionally, after going through some painstaking object selection, I accidentally choose the wrong action, for example, Rotate instead of Scale. This is because I don't always use typed commands, but will use the left-click menu for some actions, and Rotate and Scale are right next to each other (it doesn't help that my mouse is a bit jittery sometimes - yes, I need a new mouse). Even with simple object selections, it is annoying to have this happen. If I find that I have made the wrong command choice, I simply want to undo the command choice but keep the objects selected. Is there a way to do this besides clearing it all and starting over? Kind of like the OOPS command, but for actions, not erase? On a related note, if I have several actions I intend to use on the same set of selected objects, I have to re-select them after each one is completed (not always, but this is sometimes true). Is there a quick re-select command that selects the same group of objects I had last selected? FYI, I use AutoCAD 2012 LT Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dadgad Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 Welcome to the forum. If you enter the command first, then hit P, for previous selection set, you should get your last selection set back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walleighworld Posted December 20, 2012 Author Share Posted December 20, 2012 Thanks! That was just the kind of thing I was looking for. And the nice 'Welcome' was also appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PotGuy Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 A very late welcome from me! Holding Shift and going over object will also unslect them. Holding Ctrl and selecting will pick out individual items. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
