This happens to me on a semi-regular basis. I go to select a piece of geometry and I am unable to select anything. The only way I can "fix" it for a few moments is to CTRL-A (select all) then select the piece I want. On a bad day, this will happen about 30% of the time.
I think I triggered some sort of feature because I am now unable to select specific vertices that I wish to select (although I do appear to be able to select polygons at will when using Polygon).
I am attaching the .max file. I do not have the space bar lock active so I know for sure that's not the cause.
I want to clarify that I am able to select some of the vertices in the model but for some reason some vertices are not selectable (notably a cluster in the vicinity of the cheek pouch area [the part of the face that is bulging outwards])
I am having an issue with the Trajectories I am trying to move the keys within the viewport but the moment I enter Trajectory mode the pivot point goes to the center of the grid and not allowing me to select the keys within the curved trajectories.
My Process consist of Selecting the animated object > Selecting Trajectories within the motion panel > Selecting Sub-Object
We have a drawing with multiple layouts and active viewports in them. For some reason we are unable to select some of the viewports so that we can resize them. we can see them we just can not select them. I do not see any settings that would affect this.
I checked to make sure the layers are all on and thawed - i am not able to see if the viewport is locked since I can not select it .
I am having a similar problema than Kari's except that in my drawing there are no Filters defined (it only says "All used layers" and that's it). I am using AutoCAD 2010.
The problem is that I can't select the viewport with the mouse cursor. I have to say though, that I can select them with QSelect.
Also different is the fact that I can see the border of the viewport, which is in the Defpoints layer, which is not frozen or turned off. In fact, none of the layers are frozen or turned off. It's only that I can't select it with the cursor. I can selct everything else in paper and model spaces
Illustrator CS4, latest updates.MORE than often, slices on my design can't be selected.I tried everything, from sending all others to the background or deleting them, resaving them, cute-paste, moving them to another layer, hide-show, lock-unlock…
You can see them on wireframe view, but they won't preview, nor are selectable other than drawing a square over them with the slice select tool, but after you have them selected, you can't move them with the pointer, since they get de-selected.
While the are selected with the above technique, just nudge them and move them back to its place. e.g. click the "up" arrow once and them "down" once while the slices are selected and the slice-select tool is active.
I purchased the Adobe creative suite (CS5). However, upon attempting to install it, I discovered I was unable to install it in the desired folder as no options are given to change the default location that is given.
[URL]
Clicking on the bar yielded no selection window, and attempting to type the folder name did not change the default location. I am bewildered as I was able to change the folder during an earlier install (half an hour ago). Checking and unchecking the photoshop, flash and other component ticks make no difference as I am not able to select the desired folder regardless.
I have also attempted exiting and re-booting install. It does not make a difference.
Does the trial/evaluation version of VideoStudio Pro X3 - DVD factory Pro 2010 support creating Blu ray disks. Or is this only possible with the full/bought version?
I downloaded the trial version of VideoStudio Pro X3 which includes DVD factory Pro 2010 version 1.6.0.367 (dutch language version). With DVD factory starting a new videodisk I cannot select blu ray disk in the project settings. I can only select as disk: DVD and as project setting: Dvd-video or AVCHD.
I searched but could not find any resolution. I do like the editing software so very happy so far but before I buy the software, I want to make sure I can create blu ray disks (do a test).
Note: I do have two drives, first drive is Blu-ray burner (LG HL-DT-ST BD-RE BH08LS20) and second drive is normal DVD burner (TSSTcorp CDDVDW SH-S223C)
I've been having trouble selecting more than one object with the pointer. the program was just reloaded on the computer, but this problem has happened multiple times now. everything will work fine for a while, then suddenly, when trying to select objects during a command, i can only select one. (ex. trying to copy multiple lines, i can only select one to copy at a time).
I can't select objects using the hypergraph. My scene is opened, my hypergraph is open, the object nodes are listed, I select the node in the HG, but it's not selected within the scene... what gives?
I set all my prefs to default, and opened a new scene: made a NURBS ball, opened the HG, clicked on the ball's node, it highlighted in the HG, but not the geometry in the scene.
When I select an object to move I am unable to snap to the grips of the object or any other object close or any intersections. I have double and triple checked my osnap settings. Also, If I select a circle to move I am unable to select the center of the circle through additional osnap settings. One last issue, If I select an object and do a copy with base point command, I am unable to select a definitive base point. No grips or intersections show up.
My co-workers are able to do these functions but I am not.
I have a sketch with two circles.I'm placing an extrude the two sides go.I save the item and place it in a assy.Under Feature Priority I select Select Feature Priority.I select the item, right mouse click and want to select 3D Grips and want to use the component on both sides to extend.Only now it is not possible to select 3D Grips.
If I use the same sketch and I extrude one side then it is possible to use the 3D Grips to select the component to extend.
Suddenly I can only select one item at a time. If I move onto another item, the first one de-selects. I haven't knowingly made any changes. What has happened and how to put it right? I can select multiple items via 'click and drag', but only within one drag - another drag then de-selects the first drag again.
I coded a utility to work with entities rotation. This is a part of a bigger project so i just cutt and pasted together the part of code that have this problem.
Basically i get the selection, i clone it (because this is a copy and rotate) and through a draw jig class i rotate all the entities. This works well but just sometimes when the command ends it happened this weird thing, the entities appears in the draw but they can't be selected. And all get back to the normally after saving, closing and reopening the draw.
This is the utility.
public void Run(object param) { Document doc = Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument; Editor ed = doc.Editor; Database db = doc.Database; List<Entity> toRotate = new List<Entity>(); PromptSelectionOptions pso = new PromptSelectionOptions(); pso.MessageForAdding = " Select objects"; pso.AllowDuplicates = false; pso.AllowSubSelections = false; PromptSelectionResult psr = [code]........
I am using a MacBook laptop without external mouse and on Maya 2013 I could select multiple outliner items with the CMD + ALT keys. Since Maya 2014, this does not work anymore. how I can multi-select ? (I am not talking about the SHIFT key because my items are not contiguous).
I have attached a picture of what it continues to do when I attempt to select a face of this polygon I revolved from a cv curve tool line. Accidentally copied dual screen. I have been running into countless problems while trying to manipulate this revolved surface like a polygon but there is something stopping me. How do I just select an edge or a face without the entire thing lighting up with yellow dots and not actually selecting anything! I try to hold shift and click other faces but that doesn't work either!
If I could somehow delete the action of revolving a line to treat the independent tessellations as one uniform polygon. I am very new to this program and I don't know where history might be.
I am using 3ds max 2014 and have not been able to select faces when using the Unwrap UVW modifier. My only choices are vertex, edge and polygon. I've tried to use flatten mapping with polygons instead of faces, but I'm not getting the results I want that way.
I've made sure that everything is converted to editable poly. I've re-imported everything to see if that changes anything, and still nothing. I'm attaching a screenshot of my unwrap uvw rollout in case that's useful.
I have to ad a object to the legend of a map in autocad.
The map contains a grid with on the right lower corner a legend window. Someone else drew some tents and fences on the map and most of the object were copied and placed in the legend with the text next to them explaining what the object is.
If i turn off layer 0 both the objects as well as the grid and legend disappear (means they are all drawn on layer 0) all other layers are the background of the map.
Problem is that I can select the objects drawn on the map but when i copy and drag them to the legend window they disappear behind the legend.
Even if I order them to be op top or in front of other objects they stay behind the white rectangular that contains the legend.
Another problem is that the legend and the grid aren't selectable, is there a way to make them selectable again?
Okay, I've got a weird problem involving paths. Sometimes, I'll be unable to edit or select the lines of a path. I can work with the nodes and handles just fine, but it's like the lines don't even exist. This usually seems to happen when I save a file, close it out, and then open it again, or when I use the clipboard to copy and paste a path.
I have a picture in Illustrator CS3 and I'm trying to make a vector for a t-shirt. I want to remove the brown background, but I'm unable to select the background. I select image, live trace etc (6 colors), but stil unable to select only the background, only the whole picture. Not sure what to do here.
I have just installed Photoshop Elements 11 on a Mac OSX 10.6.8 and I am unable to select different editing modes (quick / guided / expert). In fact, none of the buttons on the top bar responds to my clicks. In addition, I am unable to quit the programme, instead, I have to force quit every time.
issue with selecting and then moving an object in Photo Paint? I can hover and get the object name, and then select but when I go to move the object PPT selects and moves an entirely different object. I have held down Ctrl, Alt etc. to no avail. Bigger objects are easier since there is more to grab on to but smaller objects are a pain.
I don't understand the meaning of the second reference in the hub section in the key generator, from the Design Accelerator. and i cannot select the circular edge around the shaft, in the hub.
