Can't select origin planes inside an object

[Anonymous]

Hi all,

If I'm working on an object, a cilinder for example, I'm not able to select one of the origin planes inside despite the fact that I can see the 3 yellow planes (dimmed). I can off course select a plane in the Origin section of the browser but if a design is having a lot of objects it's very convenient  to click at the plane I want to select in the object itself. I know this has to be possible but I just can't find the solution.

Thanks

To select anything, body, plane or sketch, inside another entity, place your cursor over it and then hold down the left button on your mouse.  A selection set of all entities "below" your cursor will be displayed in a list.  Once you see the list, slide the cursor down the list and pick the one you want.  Take a look at the Screencast.

Thanks very much for this very clear explanation.

Goodness...How do you delete posts? Does everything with you guys have to be convoluted?

Please show your sequence using Screencast so the forum users can determine what issues you are having.  Also attach your model.  If you do not know how to attach your Fusion 360 follow these easy steps. Open the model in Fusion 360, select the File menu, then Export and save to your hard drive. Then use the Attachments section of a forum post to attach it.

Sorry. I don't think you understand. I made a post on this thread accidentally (not inside fusion. RIGHT HERE). I simply wanted to delete it.

It is not possible for you to delete your post.  Only the administrator can do that.

Well. Alrighty then. I guess, nevermind. Thank you. Sorry for accidentally hijacking this old thread. Hopefully an admin can come by and tidy it up for me.
