eldon Posted December 16, 2006 Share Posted December 16, 2006 Try setting the PICKADD system variable to 1. This allows items previously selected to be deselected when the SHIFT is pressed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helenneenot Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 Hi! Thanks for the advice... I've set Pickadd to 1 (and 0) and I still can't select/ make a selection window to when I'm holding down shift, so I can't deselect. I can't find Options either... I'm in AutoCAD MAP 3D 2009... Any help greatly appreciated! Cheers, Helen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eldon Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 I've set Pickadd to 1 (and 0) and I still can't select/ make a selection window to when I'm holding down shift, so I can't deselect. There are several system variables that start with "pick". Perhaps your help file would give you information. ..I can't find Options either... Have you tried to type OPTIONS at the command line?

CAD USER Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 Dear Hardney, to remove form selection try to use "R" command, instead of using SHIFT command... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
