New highlight feature? How to turn off?

[coreycma]

Does anyone know how to turn the new auto highlight feature off? I'm talking about how an entity highlights when you move your crosshairs on top of it. I thought it was cool at first, but now, on a dwg with a lot of hatch...it's driving me nuts! And it is slowing the crosshair movement down.

Thanks

Good question. I believe it's in Options, under the Selection tab. If you want, I believe you can turn off just hatching highlighting & leave the other ones turned on to see if you get enough of a performance boost. That way you can still have some of the new functionality.

Hope this helps!

Ahh, I hadn't noticed the "Visual Effect Settings" button. That did it.

Thanks!

I hated it for a while but got to like the way I could be sure which object was being selected in 3D views. You might find it helpful from time to time even though you turn it off most of the time.
