Dropdown selection issue....anyone else?

Running on Mac here....just discovered an interesting problem and would like to know if it is CA in general, CA on Mac, or ME and CA.  I tried to create a symbol, but could not select anything other than the default option in the "type" dropdown list.  Then I tried to change wall type in the wall dbx.  Again, couldn't select any other option than the default.  I could drag the cursor down the dropdown list and the individual selection options would highlight.  When I would get to the option I wanted, I click, but nothing happens.

 

Anybody else having this issue???  I have already reported to tech support, just interested if the community is seeing this.

No  problems here in making a symbol,  where is the "type" option,  your question is very unclear,  I bet the  problem is you,  explain again what you are trying to do and we will figure it out.

symbol type....when you create a symbol you can choose: fixture, molding, etc.....

 

Rebooted and the problem seems to have subsided for now.

I thought that is what you were trying to do.  Yep,  never had that problem,  one of those funny gremlins that pop up once in a while that can be fixed with a few curse words and a reboot.

I run into a similar issue editing fills in wall definitions from time to time. I click on the dropdown list but I can't select any pattern. Usually, when this happens, Chief crashes on me shortly after. And of course, it happens when I'm really busy and don't have time to report it! Happened a couple weeks ago, but nothing since.
