BoxEdit greyed out when using SelLast

Hi ,

This used to work normally, but since a few weeks it doesnt anymore.

Problem:

  • Select an object with the SelLast command
  • All inputs on the BoxEdit window are greyed out
  • Deselect object
  • Select the same object manually with mouse and BoxEdit works like normal

Hey Simon -
I’m not seeing that happen here.
Please run the Rhino SystemInfo command and copy-paste the output here.
-wim

wierd! no idea what could have triggered it then?

Why it would suddenly stop is a good question. Did Windows update a few weeks ago?

In any case the newest Rhino 8 version is SR 12 and the most recent SRC is 13, with a newer one due out this evening PST. Further, your Nvidia driver is from 4-20-2022, which is really ancient in Nvidia driver time. I’d recommend updating both the driver and Rhino and checking whether the problem still exists.

Wow the GPU driver was really old. I didn’t realise it was that long.

I tend to update Rhino everytime it asks me. I was postponing it untill I could close all windows. That particular problem has been going on for at least a few updates though.

Anyway I did both things and one of those must’ve fixed it because the problem is gone… Super wierd.

Thanks for the tips, I can happily select last objects again! :smile:
