I am embarrassed to ask this, but I need help...
I insert a block using .Net. That's ok, but after the block is inserted I am unable to select anything on the screen and I mean anything! I need to hit the escape button and then regen in order to be able to select the block.
I have tried:
Dim brefIds As ObjectIdCollection = btr.GetBlockReferenceIds(False, True)
For Each id As ObjectId In brefIds
Dim bref As BlockReference = tr.GetObject(id, OpenMode.ForWrite, False, True)
bref.RecordGraphicsModified(True)
Next
Also:
tr.TransactionManager.QueueForGraphicsFlush()
But to no avail! Why am I not able to access anything until escaping and regen? It is driving me crazy. Basically, I have a floating Pallette that calls up this command:

Is there anyone who might be able to explain what I am doing wrong?
