Ok, this may or may not be an odd question, but here goes.
I am currently using AutoCAD Mechanical 2007, up to date on all hot fixes and updates.
I've been working all morning (and in the past) just fine, I click my objects, I type in my command (like CO for example) and I modify my object.
I get up and walk away from my desk, come back and sit down, go to copy and object .. doesn't work right.
It still works, but now it's as if I didn't select the object first. Now if I select an object, type in the command CO (or any other modify command) or click the toolbar button, it turns my crosshair into the suare and asks me to select an object, thenI have to hit enter to select it.
Now I know tons of peopel don't select their objects first, but imo it's a lot faster to select them type in your command .. it saves me an extra step (I modify 3d objects all day so saving 1 step for each time i have to modify something really adds up for me ).
Here was my step process: (for exampls to copy an object multiple times)
Select Object(s)
Type in command CO, enter
Click object and start copying
Here is my step process now: (same example, copying)
Select Object(s)
Type in CO, enter
Select Object again
Hit enter
Select object and start copying
Even if I type in Co first .. I still have to hit enter .. which is an extra step and while it may seem like it shouldn't add that much .. I'm not used to having to do it and I have to mentally stop and think about it which means my productivity is slowing down ARGH!
I've checked my DEMANDLOAD and it's at 3 where it should be. I've rebooted both ACAD and my PC. And this is a fresh install (I had another problem last week so IT came and just re-installed it on my pc). It was literally fine 1 minute and not the next. SHM
Help, Please ..?
