I just updated to SP1.1 and the circular arrowhead handles that appear on dimensions have vanished. I also can no longer double click the part or feature for quick access to the dimensions. I rolled back the SP and my problems went away. As soon as I put it back to SP 1.1 my problems started again. I have checked 4 other machines in my office running the new SP and they do not have this problem. I am running windows 2000 SP 4 on a Pentium 4, 2.40 ghz, 1 gig ram, with NVIDIA Quadro4 700 XGL with the latest driver. Has anyone else run into this problem and what was the fix?

not quite the same problem, but I was having some other issues with drawings after installing SP1.1, but instead of rolling back, I did the regedit trick and it seemed to fix the issues I was having.
 
Before you try the regedit trick, go to Tools -> Options ->
System Options -> Display/Selection -> make sure "Dynamic Highlight from Graphics View is checked. Seems install of SP1.1 resets that for some strange reason....
 
when I installed the SP1.1, it did not change that setting, that is why I had to mess with with registry.
 
I used the regedit trick with success. Very nice. Also, after that trick I read the options trick and that works as well. I would have never figured that out! Thanks.
 
Whell, I just installed SP1.1 and the option is checked!
I gess there is one result for each SW user (but then, this is true for all software/computer).

Regards
