Selection issue

[taylchad]

Hello,

 

Teacher had us in some options in autocad 2013 and I may have changed some settings that I have no idea how to revert. When I select a line and then go to select another line the first one gets de-selected. How do I change it so that I can select multiple lines?

 

First Line selected

 

Second Line selected (note first one is no longer selected)

 

Thanks

Change PICKADD to 2 at the command line, or uncheck the box in Options > Selection that says "Use Shift to add to selection"

It looks like nestly has already nailed your specific issue, but as you start to be impacted by your system variables in your work, you should probably know about this wonderful express tool.

To access this dialog just enter SYSVDLG at your commandline, then scroll through the list of available system variables to learn about them or address a specific problem. If you make changes, it is a good idea to write down what you have changed, lest you want to change it or them back.
