Cannot edit drafting symbols, etc. Get a 'thunk' sound.

Hi,

 

All of a sudden my VW 2019 cannot edit the drafting symbols I've put in place, things like break lines, drawing labels, reference markers, etc.

 

I can CREATE them, but when I double-click on them to bring up their appropriate dialog box nothing happens except a dull 'thunk' sound.

 

This is a new situation so I must have inadvertently changed something. Any ideas about what needs to be done to bring back the editing capability?

 

I've tried re-starting both the computer and VW to no avail.

 

Thanks for any help!

Are you sure those objects used to open the dialog box? In VW2021, when I double click on a break line or a drawing label I get a message that "those objects do not have an edit behavior." You change the properties of those objects directly in the Object Info Palette (OIP) rather than by getting the dialog box to open again.

 

If you want to change the defaults, you should be able to double click on the Tool icon and get the dialog box to open.
