AutoCAD 2015 - What happened to the "Selection Preview Effect" setting?

[SteveASmith1990]

In previous version of AutoCAD when I selected lines you could chose if you wanted to highlighted them by dash line or thicken line or by both (becoming thicker and dashed).  There is no option choice in AutoCAD 2015.  The lines only thicken.  The attached image show the options for 2015 on the left and 2014 on the right.

If I do an Erase command first and then select the lines I can hardly tell that they are selected in 2015. How do I bring back the dashed line option?

Hi, try changing the SELECTIONEFFECT sys var to 0

Perfect!  Thank you.

I like how the 2015 help has the new commands and system variables section but this one isn't listed. Makes you wonder how many more aren't

[SteveASmith1990]

Unfortunately too many I would guess.

[SteveASmith1990]

Actually I did find it in the help listing under system vaiables.

Yes, it is listed under system variables but not in the whats new section. I guess Autodesk just likes to make ya work a little.
