Quick select is not permitted in perspective view?

[GreyHippo]

When I initiate the qselect command I receive the error in the title. I tried to dview, selected all objects, then typed off, still same error. What else can I do?

Hi

Check out the following Technical Documents on the Autodesk web site under the Knowledge Base section -

ID: TS21997 - Switching between parallel projection and perspective view mode (http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/ps/item?siteID=123112&id=2894555&linkID=2475323)

Have a good one, Mike

Those didn't help.

Hi

From what you've described it sounds like you need to turn OFF Perspective View.

If you are doing that and still experiencing the issue/problem can I please suggest that you post the drawing file here (I assume Rightly or Wrongly this issue/problem is occurring within *only* one drawing file) so we can take a look.

Have a good one, Mike

here is the dwg it 2000i format.
again, the prblem is when I want to go into qselect.

Hi

Please find attached "QS_Problem_Fix.dwg", you should now be able to use ._QSelect within this drawing file.

Below is what I done to correct the drawing file -

Command: ._Dview
Select objects or <use DVIEWBLOCK>: _All
2027 found
1 was not in current space.
Select objects or <use DVIEWBLOCK>:
Enter option
[CAmera/TArget/Distance/POints/PAn/Zoom/TWist/CLip/Hide/Off/Undo]: _PO
Specify target point <1303549.211, 429745.035, 1.048E+99>: 0,0,0
Specify camera point <1303549.211, 429745.035, 1.048E+99>: 0,0,1
Enter option
[CAmera/TArget/Distance/POints/PAn/Zoom/TWist/CLip/Hide/Off/Undo]:
Regenerating model.
