Hello all,
I have a problem picking the surface in shade mode, in extract surface command it just cannot detect the surface i try to pick, to pick surface I need to change to wireframe mode, which the operation efficiency lowered.
My Rhino is Version 7 SR26
you have a duplicated surface (the big one with the vent), maybe that’s the problem?
Its not the reason. I cannot pick other surfaces as well. you can try picking the surfaces at the same view angle with red cross.
Ok, i can not replicate the issue since i’m running Version 8 and it looks everything is working
Maybe a bug?
No problem with ExtractSurface or sub-object selection and Copy>InPlace here in 7.36. Maybe update your Rhino install to the latest version?
Also run the command SystemInfo in Rhino and post the results here.

I would first update Rhino to 7.36 and also update your video driver - it’s a year old.
If you are still having problems after that, then you can try temporarily disabling the 3 non standard plug-ins and see if that fixes it. If so re-enable them one by one to figure out which one is causing the problem.
Problem fixed by resetting the display mode of shade… I am not sure if i clicked something there. Thank you anyway
