It is not a consistent error, and I am not sure why it sometimes works and other times it does not. If anyone else gets this error, please say so, perhaps it is a bug.

0 Pat Stanford Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 This is likely due to the fact that the space bar is now used for both the Boomerang mode and also for Smart Options Display (pop up tool bars). If the mouse is completely still, then the Smart Options Display takes priority. If it is slightly moving then you get Boomerang. Try going to Vectorworks Preferences:Smart Options Display pane and unchecking the Show with Space Bar option and see if that helps. 1 Quote Link to comment

Question
Kaare Baekgaard
I use the boomerang a lot, when I fillet corners.
I select accessible corners then press spacebar, then pan or select the flyover tool to make new corners selectable etcetera.
Now with VW21 I often have to start over, because the boomerang mode fails to remain active when selecting the flyover tool.
It is not a consistent error, and I am not sure why it sometimes works and other times it does not.
If anyone else gets this error, please say so, perhaps it is a bug.
