I select it and copy it by using the selection tool and dragging the object to the right. The problem isn't with anything that you describes about the selections and I am not extruding anything, it's just copying various objects!įirst object is a smart polygon rectangle drawn in 2D. Thanks for your tip of objects in the explorer window, will probably come in handy with a lot of objects in a drawing. I wasn't able to recreate the exact issues I had before but almost, I will tell you in a little while about what I have done in the attached file, but first to your reply! I have attached a test file for your information! Drawing a fence will give a count of objects that are inside the fence. I suspect that clicking at the edge of the block in your drawing will cause the selection tool to ask for the object to be selected. If several items are very close together the tool doesn't know which item you want so it will display a list of possible objects for you to select from. The selection tool will select only one item. You can also grab the block and move it aside leaving the rectangle behind if that helps you see it better. Note that the rectangle lines will coexist with the edge of the block where the extrusion started. Change to an isometric view and you should be able to see both objects. You can also select either object in this window. After drawing a fence around the object open "Turbocad Explorer" palette and select the "Objects" tab, both items should be listed here. The block could now be hiding the rectangle behind it depending on the view selected. You didn't say how the 3D object was created so I'm thinking that you extruded a smart rectangle meaning that you now have the original rectangle and a 3D block. It would be helpful if you posted your drawing for us to look at, a picture is worth a thousand words as they say.

To my knowledge and the testing I have made it doesn't seam to matter if I am using the selection tool or any of the copying tools in the toolbar! It's even stranger when I deal with surfaces! The same problem as above applies but the object disappears from view but I can find it if I draw a fence around where I think it should be, but I can never actually see the object itself! Sometimes it's the original object that disappears and sometimes it's the copy that disappears. So it's very difficult to know what I am doing! I can chance the active object while clicking on it but the highlight always show the objects as one entity. When I draw a fence around it it states two objects. When I create an object in 3D the new object and the original gets highlighted but the "edit object box" says one object selected. The new rectangle becomes selected and in the "edit object box" it says one object selected. If I draw an object, lets say a rectangle in 2D, and make a copy of it. I am having problems with the visualization of objects when the object is selected.
