Editing a Sketch Requires deleting Twice in 2008
Editing a Sketch Requires deleting Twice in 2008
(OP)
I have noticed a new feature in Solidworks 2008 that makes it necessary to delete a line, dimension, etc. in a sketch twice before it goes away. Is this something a bored SW Engineer came up with to add unecessary work? Does anyone know how to undo this annoyance? I have looked in the most obvious places for a checkbox to unclick.

does it always happen?
maybe it is a graphics problem. what happens if you delete once and then press CTRL-R?

Can you provide more detail as to what you're doing when you delete?

I am using SP3.1 and 4.0 now and do not notice that behavior.

Does it disappear and then re-appear?
I had a similar problem a while back. Had to select things twice before they were recognised as being selected. Uninstalling and reinstalling the mouse driver fixed the problem.

Have you tried Tools > Options > Document Properties tab > Detailing and un-check the annoyance checkbox?
