Clip to rectangle problem ...

Hi,

I'm trying right now to use the "Clip to rectangle / clip to area tool.
Unexpected I have problems to define the size of an area - but not in all parts of the drawing and I don't know why!

"Big area" = impossible - the left mouse click is not accepted

"Small area" ... works. Why??????????

Thanks for the report.

Could you attach or e-mail the DXF file for testing? Thanks.

Yes, I've noticed this too. It seems to happen when selecting parts of a drawing that contain Circles.
Works fine for Arc and Ellipses, but Circles no good. Check my simple test.

No problem, glad you've sorted it out :wink:
