Hi NXer's

I have attached a folder containing two parts that have both been saved in exactly the same state in NX12 and in NX1899 along with a video showing the issue which I'll explain.

A customer has recently upgraded to NX1899 from NX12 and they have brought to out attention that in NX1899, they are unable to get an extracted body to preselect or select just by hovering the cursor over it, they have to to use quick pick instead where as in NX12 the extracted body will preselect without any problem.

Any ideas if there is a setting we a missing?

Cheers

Si

Best regards

My grasp on it is that selection priority isn't a default but controlled using the toggles or hotkeys.

The priority thing is my guess too.
I have a model where I extracted the body and when I switched the priority to BODY the extraction was selected when hovering over it.
It will help things out if you have the selection priority on your menu bar.
If I remember correctly there was a slight change within NX at how priority's are handled from NX12 to NX1899.
