Try this:
Make sure PICKFIRST = 1
and 'Noun/verb selection' is enabled.

1. Draw a line. Enable grips for this line. Right Clik. Copy.
The line is selected.

2. Set QAFLAGS to 1
Repeat step 1:
the line is unselected and Acad request: 'Select entities'

3. Set QAFLAGS to 0
Repeat step 1.
The line is selected

Strange behavior!
Any information will be apprecied.
Tks.
 
Il y a peu [ Joe Burke ] a jeté au travers de l'écran , avec MesNews :
Jean-Paul,

That's one of the things QAFLAGS = 1 does. See this link to ManuSoft under the undocumented system variables section.

"bit 0 (1) : ^C in menu macro cancels grips (acts like keyboard <Esc>)"

IMO, that's a good reason to avoid using it in a program.

Verry thanks.
