2D Wireframe Viewport

2D Wireframe Viewport

Hi Autodesk community.

 

I don't know exactly how to put this in words, but when I'm in 2D Wireframe mode, if I want to draw a polyline or any line from a certain point of an extruded 3D object. Instead of giving me the capability of selecting that point, it selects the surface of the model instead. 

 

I've reinstalled my CAD after a pc upgrade and now it's giving me this issue. 

 

Please find attached a image of the problem.

 

Thanks in advance for any help regarding the issue.

Hi Imad, unfortunately the issue is still there. I don't want the face selected. I want to be able to freely draw through the 3D objects without the face being highlighted or selected.

I'm actually laughing at myself right now. Can't believe I didn't think of the dynamic UCS. 

 

Appreciate the help
