Hello, weird bug making it impossible to select dimensions when the geometry on the screen i barely visible (like when you look at 2D drawings from the side). All other geometry is possible to select , but not the dimensions.

If I need to post a video showing this behavior - how can I do it ? /Erik

Hej Erik - Please post a 3dm file that shows the problem. You can simply drag’n’drop a file from Windows Explorer or use the Upload button from the toolbar: [image] -wim

[image] Pascal Golay: For better or worse this is by design Definitely worse. There is already a filter for “annotations”, so we can decide not to select dimension objects already. Once more, since selecting in the viewport is basically our only option, I don’t think something should be excl…

Sorry Pascal, how do you mean “edge-on” ? Can you explain ? Thanks /Erik

Hej Erik - [image] erik: how do you mean “edge-on” ? Can you explain ? In this case, that means looking at something that is infinitively thin from the side. Coming back to the original post in this thread… [image] erik: weird bug making it impossible to select dimensions when the geom…
