Hey all,
Is there a way to reduce the distance my curser has to be away from mechanical equipment for it to be selectable?
In the image below the FCU is highlighted even though I am not hovering over it with the curser. When I took this picture the curser was where the orange box is.

Are you saying that the cursor needs to be away from the element in order to select it or it is selectable all the way out to that area?
No, I can select it just fine, the problem is when I try to select an item next to it. I often have to temporarily hide the FCU to grab items next to it.
In the image below, I am hovering the curser over the AP, but if I try to select it, the curser grabs the FCU next to it.
There's something in the FCU family that is hidden in the view. My first guess is a clearance region but that doesn't seem appropriate here. Can you please share the family?
A workaround for this is to pin the FCU and then set the selection locks to ignore pinned elements. That saves having to hide and unhide. You can also use “select all instances” to select all of the FCUs and pin or unpin in one go. That’s how I usually get around this problem.
