if i open civil3d i cant deselect an object if it is on an image

[syria89]

for example

you open civil3d (not autocad as civil) and u link an image and draw some lines inside the image zone.

select all the lines then try to deselect a line by usuing  shift. it doesnt work. but if you open autocad you will have no probleme

when i said open autocad i mean you have to close completley civil then open autocad as civil. i tried just to chang civil profil to autocad but doesnt work. so this i say to close it completley

is this a normal problem or autodesk have to find a solution for it

thanks in advance

Hi,

this is a setting that comes with the Map3D-part into Civil3D.

Start command _MAPIOPTIONS, go to second tab and you will find a checkbox for the usage of <SHIFT> combined with image and selection.

Change this option and it should work like you expect it.

Sorry, no idea, it was Autodesk, not me 😉

Probably because someone added it to a whish list at one point. There is also a similar setting in the RD Object enabler that will do the same thing.

A left over from the old DOS Softdesk days that's never got updated would be my guess.

Good thought Murph. I'll see if I can check that out. If I can remember past the weekend that is!
