Hidden bodies selectable?
Hidden bodies selectable?
(OP)
I'm having a weird one on my laptop (Dell XPS 17, Win 7, 64 bit, SW11). I'm working on a multibdy part with several solid bodies and several surface bodies. In order to isolate a specific body, I hide the others to avoid clutter. The issue I'm having is that even when bodies are hidden I can't select through them. I can't see the actual geometry, but somehow hidden faces are getting selected when they overlap with the actual face/features I need to work on. I'm guessing it's a desktop heap issue since it doesn't happen 100% of the time.
Any idears?

RE: Hidden bodies selectable?
What happens if you temporarily delete the bodies instead of just hiding them?

Does 'show hidden components' help you at all?
RE: Hidden bodies selectable?
Try deselecting both Selection of hidden edges options in b]Tools > Options > System Options > Display/Selection
BTW, are you using the isolate command or the regular Hide command ... not that it should make a difference.

Deleting the bodies acts as suspected. Looking like a graphics card issue.
