Cant select more then 1 cosmetic line
Cant select more then 1 cosmetic line
(OP)
Hello,
My fellow Pro/E user here at our work is running across a silly situation. If he draws a cosmetic square or uses the "Use Egde" command in drawing mode to select a square this works fine. When he goes to hatch or fill this area it cant be done. He can only select 1 line at a time even when holding down shift. We have gone back to old drawings that he has done this type of fill on and now he can not do it anymore. When I pull in his drawing into my system (Pro/E) I can do this type of fill just fine. WEIRD
Would anyone know a solution or has anyone had this happen to them?
Thanks
John

Also, when I get to work I will check my mapkeys. I have a mapkey called "hatch". When I type in hatch now, it allows me to put a window around draft objects for hatching. Tomorrow at work when I can get the mapkey at my office, I'll follow up this message.

(this is the way it is in pro 2001)
Also, I have the following lines included in my config.pro file. If you include it in yours you should be able to select multiple draft object by typing "hatch". It works for me.
!10/13/03 added "hatch" mapkey to pick multiple draft
!entities for creating a hatched area
mapkey hatch @MAPKEY_NAMEHatch;@MAPKEY_LABELHatch;#CREATE;#FILLED AREA;\
mapkey(continued) #HATCH;#PICK MANY;
