how can I select a part in assy when axis' are on?
how can I select a part in assy when axis' are on?
(OP)
In an assembly I am trying to select a part, to move it, and the axis' are turned on. When I try to select a surface, or face of the part, the axis' keeps getting selected. I turned the axis' off and this condition goes away, I could then select edges, surfaces, and faces. By the way the filters are not active when I'm having this problem.

Just curiuos because I have had trouble selecting/moving parts sometimes when they are in wireframe.

Do you have "Allow selection in wireframe and HLV modes" and "Allow selection in HLR and shaded modes" checked on?Under Tools\Options\System Options\Display/Selection
Try unchecking and see if you still pick the axis.
Also make usre under View that "Temp axis" and "Axis" is unchecked.
