Command line wont accept input if an object is selected and cursor is over the object


Recommended Posts

Has anyone had the issue of your command line not working if you have a p-line/object selected and your cursor is over the same object? sometimes this will cause the object to adjust after you try to start a command, but the command won't start. I just get a beep signaling an error, but no message. Does anyone know of a setting to fix this annoying issue?

Is the cursor also hovering a grip?

Most likely, it doesn't happen every time, so i wouldn't doubt it.

You have a polyline. It's been selected which means the line is highlighted and the grips are visible. Your cursor hovers over the polyline so you are forced to type a command and that's when this beeping may or may not occur? How long has this been going on?

since i installed 2015. Its not a huge issue, it just would be nice if my commands would override my cursor position. so are you thinking it i more of just pay more attention to where my cursor is when i start a command or do you know of a fix?

and yes grips are visible (sorry didn't see that that was a question.)

By default, if you're hovering a polyline grip, the Multifunctional Grip menu will be active. If the Grip menu is active, Command line won't accept input.

Sounds good, i will just have to be more aware that i am not on a grip. Thanks for your help!

The sound you are hearing is likely due to the OPTIONS setting,

as shown in the screenshot.
