Do not have the “Select Other” option in Measure Distance tool.

Hello

I would like to measure the distance in assembly.

The distance is between two hole axis.

I use Measure Distance tool.

I do not have the “Select Other” option to choose axis supposedly pop up ofter the preset delay time. Seems like Application Option – General – Selection is responsible for that?

But it is checked to ON as on pic attached. My laptop machine works fine with the same settings.

Please advise what could cause this problem?

 

Best regards,

Orest Yavtushenko

There is a bug with the "select other" tool where it will not pop up sometimes (seems to occur when you have multiple/larger files open or something).. I usually restart Inventor and then it works again.. Try to restart Inventor and see if it starts working again.

Does it work if you RMB on the object and click "Select Other" there?
