	Objects get selected while moving mouse cursor.
	AutoCAD drawing objects may be highlighted ("selected") when you move cursor over them. If you don't use an accelerated graphics card or you have a slow computer, you may want to suppress this highlighting setting. Set the `SELECTIONPREVIEW` variable to 0 or 2. Or use the setting on the Selection tab in the Options dialog, the "Selection preview" section - the "Visual effects..." button.
