JonnyP Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 AutoCAD LT2011 Quick properties has suddenly stopped working as normal. When the cursor hovers over some objects 2 small interlocking squares that look like the symbol for command for putting objects below other objects appears. When I left click the normal properties box appears along with another box titled 'Selection' which then lists arc or line etc. How can I get rid of this?

RobDraw Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 That is called selection cycling. When it is on it indicates when there is more than one object available at the point of selection. A valuable tool when you know what it is and how to use it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for that but I'd really like to remove it. Tried everything relating to selection with no success. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLW210 Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 SELECTIONCYCLING (System Variable) Controls the display options associated with overlapping objects and selection cycling. Type: Integer Saved in: Registry Initial value: -2 When you roll over overlapping 2D objects, options are available to alert you and let you select between the objects. Value Description 0 The display options are turned off 1 A badge displays when you hover over objects that overlap 2 Both a badge and the Selection dialog box displays Press Ctrl+W to toggle the current setting on and off. When SELECTIONCYCLING is set to a negative value, selection cycling is turned off, but the setting is stored. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
