Disabling OrientXPress

Disabling OrientXPress

Disabling OrientXPress

(OP)
Greetings all!

Is it possible to disable OrientXPress? It really stands in the way sometimes.

RE: Disabling OrientXPress

Not that I'm aware of.

With what functions and under what circumstances are you finding this to be a problem?

RE: Disabling OrientXPress

(OP)
I find OrientXPress annoying when I'm picking direction for extrusion of revolution, or some general vector direction. I personally know users whom OrientXPress encouraged to make non-associative selection of direction thought itself, rather than associative reference from the feature tree. I personally would love to be able to turn it off.

About the best that can do would be to go into Customer Defaults and set the color ro something which would cause the arrows to blend into the background. I know that's not much help, but it might have the desired effect.
