I am having a issue with my AutoCAD 2013 version and I am not sure how to fix it let me explain. After I have created a text and I needed to change the wording etc I "use to" just double click on the text and it would open the editor and I could change it. Now that does not work and I also can not double click on a block and open it automatically. I think a setting is change and I can not find it. I also tried opening another drawing (thinking it was the drawing I was in) but it does the same thing so I think its a setting withing Autocad that got change. Can anyone help? Brent

Double click to edit text is often very clunky, especially a single line. I usually highlight, right click, and choose edit. Works the first time, every time.

Check to see if PICKFIRST=1. Your problem is consistent with it being =0.

I was having the same problem today. Also it was not showing in my layers toolbar what lay an object was on if i selected it, it was always showing the current layer. I did check the PICKFIRST, and it was set to 0. Thanks for the help. |

| Also, be sure to check that QAFLAGS is set to 0. It can cause "weirdness" if not |
