[solved] Make block issue

Post by amsmarle » Thu Apr 07, 2022 9:59 pm

Windows 10 64bit..
Version: 3.27.1.0 (3.27.1)
Hello, having made an item and created a block from a selection. When I click on the block to edit it my drawing disappears and the block goes into full screen and remains in a faded screen colour. I then have to reinstall my drawing and start again. I am doing something wrong, please can you help/advise me
(my first week with Q cad Pro) - Purchased last week long time user of Accad
Best Regards

Alan

Double-clicking a block by default opens the block for editing. When you're done with editing the block, you can return to the main drawing using menu Block > Return to Main Drawing.

You can navigate blocks more conveniently using the block list: View > Block List. Simply double-click the block you want to edit in the block list. Your main drawing is in block "Model (*Model_Space)".
