    Default Select Space Sensitivity

    Hello,
    Is it possible to adjust the sensativity of space selection? In order to select a space, I have to either hover around in the open area or right along the boundry of a space until I see the "x" display, then click to select. I would like to be able to just click any open area within a space to select it. Is this possible?
    Thank you

    I'm not aware of any "sensitivity setting" for this.
    You can turn the visibility of the space reference lines on (the Xs) that makes it easier to know where to pick.

    It might be easiest to just hover over a wall face and use the TAB SELECT method of getting the space object.

    what are you looking to do for selecting? If you needed to adjust some space properties you may be better off creating a space schedule and adjusting from there. I think I'd rather keep the spaces hard to select if it were me.

    I would like to speed up the process of assigning spaces to zones. Anytime you have to move the mouse to a precise location, it slows down the process.
    Assigning spaces to zones from a schedule or property is the first thing I tried. I posted a question about that on the forum http://forums.augi.com/showthread.php?t=136980&highlight=assign+spaces+zones+input, and the response that I got was that it is not possible.

    In regards to mattw's response

    I am not familiar with the TAB SELECT method. I tried hovering over a wall and hitting tab, but it did not select the space. Do you have a link to more information about this?

    Thank you for your responses.

    Over the edge of the wall, where the space meets the wall.

    For me... I'm constantly picking them unintentionally.

    agreed, always thought the issue was they were too easy to pick. Same w/ the linked items, although using design options is nice for that.
