Cannot Select Text


Recommended Posts

I hate to wake an old thread...but i'm having a similar problem and for the life of me cannot find a solution...

 

This was drawn by a co-worker. I cannot select/delete random objects throughout the drawing...no layers are frozen/locked, I have purged/audited/cleaned up the drawing file...

 

I can use "select>all" in the command line and delete that way, but not through the drawing window. I have tried to explode tables, remove attributes, and wblock out to a new drawing with no results. Whenever I Wblock using "select all" and write a new drawing, I am able to select everything until I regen, at which point random entities become un-selectable again...HELP!

 

Most of what remains in this drawing are entities i cannot remove...anybody?!

 

**Edit**

Forgot to mention this file has been opened on multiple computers with the same result...

This worked for me.

 

1. Go to model space.

2. Right click an empty area and select "Quick Select"

3. Set Object type to "MText" and Operator to "Select All" and hit "OK."

4. Press Control + 1 to bring up Properties Window.

5. Scroll down Properties Window to Z position and input 0.00
