1. Re: Selecting Object to Edit
Niall O'Donovan Oct 27, 2010 2:36 PM (in response to meem23)Hi,
Don't have a solution, but I see that behaviour here as well. I am using LC Designer ES2 v9.0.0.2. It tends to happen here if I select an object that is partially off the screen. Not so much if I select an object that is in full view. The object tends to jump to the content are boundaries.
It only happens sometimes and I can't say that I have nailed down an action that consistently causes the object to jump.
Annoying, but I don't have a solution. Will be interested to hear.

pguerett Oct 28, 2010 5:13 AM (in response to Niall O'Donovan)I'm guessing here but ......do you have snap to grid on? This causes the object to move to point on the grid. By turning that off your object can stay where it was originally placed.
That setting is on the View/Grid & GuideLines/Snap to Grid

Niall O'Donovan Oct 28, 2010 5:36 AM (in response to meem23)I am not able to check now, but it tends to happen when I select a high object, where the mid-height anchor is off screen. Also the jump is much greater than the grid pitch. I'll try and capture later.

meem23 Oct 28, 2010 5:45 AM (in response to pguerett)This happens on any form I've created. If you add a text object and make it larger than the viewing area it should do it. If not, let me know and I will send you a sample form.
thanks

meem23 Oct 28, 2010 5:46 AM (in response to Niall O'Donovan)Yes, it's when the object is larger than the viewing area is when this happens.
Thanks for your responses.

Niall O'Donovan Oct 28, 2010 8:31 AM (in response to meem23)Hi Michelle,
I think that you will have to learn to live with it, for the time being until a fix is delivered.
If I have large objects, I select that when I know the mid-height anchor point would be visible. When selecting multiple objects (Control + click), I only select a few, because again if the group mid-height anchor point is off screen, then the whole group can move erratically as well.
Good luck,
Niall
