Extra click needed to edit mtext after doubleclicking

Anonymous — Thu, 24 Sep 2015 16:20:50 GMT

Hi everyone!

I've been using AutoCAD 2014 for awhile now (no recent update that I'm aware of), but this problem just started in the past couple days. When I double-click to edit mtext it now requires me to select the text again after the double-click in order to edit it in place. In the past I'd just double-click and it woudl take me straight to into the editor.

A similar thing happens now when I try to copy something using copybase. I used to select the item I wanted to copy, type ctrl+shift+c, and then select my base point. That's it. Now it adds another step and makes me select my object again at the end of the command.

Any thoughts of how to revert back to the "good ol' days"? Thanks in advance!

What's new with your system since the change?
