Working with Drawing Objects 

7.1

 

Selecting Objects 

You have a wide range of options when selecting objects for editing. You can create a selection set that 
consists of one or more objects before modifying them. 

Depending on the type of operation you will be performing you can use one the following methods to 
create a selection set: 

 

Choose a command or tool first, and then select objects. 

 

Select objects first, and then choose a command or tool (most objects). 

 

Select objects by pointing, and then use grips to modify them. 

7.1.1

 

Select Objects Individually 

You may select one or more objects individually by clicking on them. The selected objects can be 
removed from the selection set by holding down the shift key and clicking on them. 

7.1.2

 

Select objects with pickbox 

You may select objects using the mouse or other pointing device. The mouse or other pointing device is 
represented by a square pickbox on the drawing area. When selecting an object, the cursor square 
pickbox should overlap the object. The size of pickbox can be changed on the 'Options' dialog box 
found in the Tool Menu or by right clicking on the drawing screen. 

7.1.3

 

Remove Selection from Objects 

Press Shift, and then select the entity again (must be running a command). 

NOTE

 Pressing Shift and drawing a window over entities can be used to remove all entities in the 

window. 

7.1.3.1

 

To remove all entities from the selection set 

Press Escape. 

7.1.4

 

Prevent Objects from Being Selected 

You may prevent objects from being selected by using a locking layer. The locking layer means that you 
cannot do any operations except for editing objects on this layer.
