Unable to select vertical lines in the map window

Anonymous User

Hi,

I'm experiencing an issue in attempting to select vertical lines within my UNM in my map window. 

I am unable to select a HV connector with the select tool in the map window by either clicking directly on it, or by clicking a dragging a selection rectangle around it. It selects all other assets around it, but not the vertical line segment. the only way i can select this segment is in the attribute table or 'select by attribute'.

Has anyone seen this before.

Hi! 

I have encountered this issue in the past. Do you have a dash effect on the line at all? This and line cap type can cause issues with both rendering and selecting a perfectly vertical line segment. 

If this is the case a solution is to either remove the dash effect (and ensure the line cap type is set to "Round"), or if you want to preserve the symbology, you can add a non-dashed, round-capped stroke layer into the symbol, and simply set the colour to "no colour" (HEX 000000) and this will act as a selectable line segment for the purposes of selecting in the map window. 

Hope this helps!
