Maquee Selection

It was working fine, then

Up until a few minutes ago I could drag a marquee and select all the objects...text, dimensions, lines etc and turn them into a block.
Now all it will select are text objects.

How do I get it to select all objects.  In the Preferences dialog box Under Edit, the "select contained objects" is checked.  I tried the others, but not luck.
Thanks,

Lane

It sounds like you were in Text Mode if only text would select , so hitting Space as Chopsaw said to deselect should of worked ( I usually hit it twice to be sure).

 

Clicking the Arrow Icon  will do the same thing too

 

hopefully you got it by now...

Closed the program, re started the program, then it started working again like it should.

Always a good thing to do if you experience some weirdness in CA , I have seen others reporting weird Selection issues in X10 at times too , eg being able to select hidden and off layers....
