Selection Arrow Accuracy

[strohtm]

Does anyone know how to control th accuracy or the selection arrow?

We have 45 installations of Solidworks on 3 types of computers. Some of the users have issues with the selection tool. While in drawings triing to place dimensions they can click several times triing to select an edge. It doesn't select anything then it will. This is extreamly frustrating and is causing our new users to use old CAD software.

Does anyone know what's happening or how we can adjust this?

The accuracy or selection area size should be controlled by the mouse software, not SW.

Are you sure it's not just a delay in the selection showing on-screen?

Is it always the same computers experiencing this problem?

Is there any commonality between the computers experiencing this problem? (Type of mouse, CPU, video card, location, etc)

Almost sounds like a graphics card issue. Which cards do this, and is there any correlation between computers and cards?

Reason trumps all. And awe transcends reason.

Make sure the SELECTION FILTER is not the cause. Use the F5 key to toggle it on... see what's active... then F5 again to kill it.

Right-click. It's friggin' magic!
