I just tried to use the quick select feature by right clicking in my drawing but it is not selectable as the words "quick select" are greyed out. I tried restaring my PC but this hasn't fixed it.
If I type QSELECT the quick select box pops up but I don't want to have to type this every time I want to use this feature
any ideas?
I am using AutoCAD Civil 3D 2011
I have since found out something weird - this is only happening in some drawings, would still be good to find a solution
I'm experiencing the same issue with AutoCAD Civil 3D 2012 (SP4), though not in basic AutoCAD 2012: when I right‑click in the attached MPA.dwg, Quick Select is not available (greyed out). As a counter-example, when right‑clicking in the attached Drawing1, Quick Select is available. Any advice?
Hi,
seems to be depending on the object-count available just in modelspace.
If there is not any object selectable in modelspace the menu-item is greyed out. You can verify that by changing to modelspace, start command _QSELECT and you get reported that there is no object in modelspace available.
At least the problem is, that AutoCAD should count the objects in the active space (so in case of MPA.dwg it would see that there are some objects available), but it ignores that objects, ...just counting modelspace and that's it.

I know this is super old but for those still looking for an answer... draw something in model space and then the command become available.
