Editing ordinate dimensions

On my older computer using KeyCreator 2021 SP0 I was able to edit individual lines in ordinate dimensions by hovering my mouse over the specific dimension and hitting the space bar to select it. Now that I have installed this same program and version on my new computer, I am no longer able to do this. What is the trick?

RE:Editing ordinate dimensions

There are a few things that can cause this but let's start with the obvious: Go into Tools>Application Options>Positioning/Selection and insure that "Key for Toggling Current Selection" is set to "Space"

Intel Core i7-7700 @3.60(x2)

Member	rgregoire@gtc-products.com - 1/16/2021 8:11:16 AM RE:Editing ordinate dimensions I think I found the problem. In Tools>Application Options>Position Selection>Select>Enable Dynamic Entity Selection Checkbox was off. After checking this box, all seems to be working as I am accustomed to. Thank you for helping me solve this problem. Reply \| Quote \| Subscribe to post
