Wrong selection preview in dual Viewport configuration.

[Anonymous]

Hey,

i'm usinng AutoCad 2015 with CPU 5820k and GTX 970 on windows 10 64 bit.

While working on single viewport everything seems fine, but when dual viewport is used and some lines/polylies drawn are selected "blue thick" lines which shoould be around object flyes away. Please see screenshot.

Interesting... Can you please provide a .dwg sample, thanks.

in my case this happens even on any of standard templates. you just need to
open 2 model vieport

Why two in modelspace, and not one in modelspace and one in paperspace?

By-the-way, have you tried REGEN and PURGE to make sure it's not a glitch?

so in my it is on all templates. I mean, i can create new DWG using any of template and will have problem. Tested already on 3 different computers.

I will explain again:

When on model, using dualvieport configuration and with wireframe visual style i make rectangle, and when i select it i see "selection glow" not on lines.

if visual style is 2D, then it is OK.

please see attached screnshot

I have the exact same problem. Any solutions?

Yes. I use AutoCad Architecture 2018.

Hi,

can you please add a screenshot too, so we can see how it looks like on your system and which object you are referring to.

Also take care, your drawing contains proxy objects, maybe testing the same without the application or object enabler of this application might also make a difference.

Ofcourse. Here is a prt scr of the object I referred to. 

About the proxy objects. I am not sure what that is. It seem to be connected to the application "Impact" which I have installed and has been working fine in other files. It seems as this problem only occurs in a few of all the files in this project and only for me. None of my colleagues have this problem with the wrong selection preview... We have the some updates and versions of programs on our computers. Hope this information can be of any help sorting out the problem.

Hi,

>> Here is a prt scr of the object I referred to. 

Thank your for your screenshot, however in the dwg-file you uploaded I can't find an object (I guess it's a line) at the position you showed (I have not changed the layer frozen states, let me know if I should do that).

>> About the proxy objects. I am not sure what that is

These are objects of applications, not from AutoCAD. To control and modify such objects you need to have the application installed, at least an ObjectEnabler to get them correct displayed and plotable (but this depends on the application itself if ObjectEnabler is really needed for selection/plot/erase/...)

In this drawing I see object from application "ImpactRcBase" as well as objects from Civil 3D.

>> It seem to be connected to the application "Impact" which I have installed and

>> has been working fine in other files.

OK, when you open this dwg-file with AutoCAD and a profile where this application is not activated, do you see the same effect(s)?

>> None of my colleagues have this problem with the wrong selection preview.

Do they have the application installed or plane AutoCAD/AutoCAD Architecture?

>> We have the some updates and versions of programs on our computers

Make sure that your versions and updates matches with the workstations where you don't see this issue.

Also try to turn off hardware acceleration (command _GRAPHICSCONFIG) to see if it shows this behaviour then too.
