Hello all,
DataCad 12. For no apparent reason I'm unable to edit entities in one of my projects. I try to erase an entity and get the message: "the point entered is too far from an entity". I try to stretch an entity and get the message: "0 entities selected".
I suspect that the file may be corrupt, but there may something I'm missing. All other project files okay.
Any pointers greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Check your Object Snap settings miss distance. Try setting it to 10.

Thanks Josh.
Object Snap already set to 10, so I don't think that's the issue. I can "identify" entities, just can't edit them.
As a work-round, I can export as dwg, and import back in, but this is a nuisance - line weights, colours etc.
