selection order

Hello KC community,

I've just upgrade from 2020sp2 to 2022sp1.1 and noticed that when I use generic edit for a solid, KC starts to pick edges, then faces and finally the solid. In 2020sp2 KC picks the solid first. How can I get the same behavior ?

I have pre selection disabled (in both versions).

Thanks!

Advanced member	wkrol@kubotek3d.com - 4/6/2022 1:24:00 PM RE:selection order I confirm the behaviour. While I investigate, hold the SHIFT key while selecting to access the parent entity when functions accept multiple entity types -Wes Reply \| Quote \| Subscribe to post


Advanced member	wkrol@kubotek3d.com - 4/6/2022 1:47:42 PM RE:selection order This seems to only happen with GENERIC EDIT on solids, sheet bodies & faces. Are you aware of any other functions besides GENERIC EDIT -Wes Reply \| Quote \| Subscribe to post


Advanced member	Dana - 4/6/2022 2:20:44 PM RE:selection order The problem is that while holding SHIFT forces it to select a solid, you can't then use the selection toggle (spacebar) to rotate between solids. If you're trying to select a solid that's behind other solids, it's a real PITA. It also does this during verify entity. Reply \| Quote \| Subscribe to post
