Thanks, Mark, for remembering the one! I was away from my computer and could not even run through a few options.

Thank you, thank you! I must have accidentally changed this setting as this was the issue.

Didn't know about this lock, and don't really understand what it does, but I know now to keep it set to No Snap.

Make sure the Snap Lock is toggled to No Snap... not Point Snap or Element Snap.

Ahhh...

I had this happen many years back in exactly the manner you have described, but for the life of me I forgot what was going on or how it was resolved. It has been a while since I used SS2, but have you checked your InRoads locks? The only other thing I can think of is the "get out of the drawing and reboot" scenario.

Hi Mark - Both these instances occurred in two different dgns and both 2D models. Top View is not applicable in 2D models, correct?

Jeff:

Are you sure that you are in a Top View?
