Hi,

I am finding the when I have the NewPlywood linetype next to a solid line that is the face of the plywood - I cannot select the solid line. This is particularly odd since the NewPlywood linetype is defined at it's center.

How can I get this to work better?

On a related point, did the object snap distance change in v17? It seems like it has tightened up.

I made a new linetype years ago that is based on newplywood but is missing the outer edges that makes offsetting individual lines used for the face of the playwood much easier. Sure you could whip one up or you can get mine in one of my linetype packs.

I just set the plywood line type to a little smaller than the width, for 3/4" plywood, my spacing is ..22.
