    Problem Entering Commands

    Hi Everybody,

     

    I've been using Civil3D (2013) for a few months now and just yesterday something weird happened. I used to able to select an object, then enter a command and it would apply to whatever objects I selected. For example, I could select a line, then type M, and the move command started for that line. Now when I select a line and type M it deselects that line and asks me to select the objects I want to move, as if nothing was selected when I started the move command. What weird button did I press or box did I check to make this happen?

     

    Thanks all,

    -Dan K.

    Well that did it. Any idea how this would have changed on its own?

    It's one of those variables, not unlike FILEDIA, that has been known to change during a crash or hang.
