circle selection

Post by jouke »

Hi all,

I've stumbled onto something that used to work if my memory serves me well.
I've created a hollow cylinder with a drill hole. I can only select the outer circle for dimensioning, the rest of the circles in the bottom view can not be selected (see attachment). Is this a bug or a new feature.

Thanks a lot for the amzing software,

Jouke

That's strange, because you can select the point at the right side of the circle.

It's a bug. It has to do with the order the circles are drawn - (i think) the biggest is drawn after the 2 smaller ones, so the big "selection area" overlaps the smaller ones. I know Vertices are drawn last, and I can select them.

Are you able to create a ticket for this in Mantis?

Thanks,

I added a minor comment concerning the usage of the back link.
