Any way to turn off the shadow when moving text, dimensions, window doors etc?

 

When you move an item you can see a greyed out image behind. Kind of confusing in most instances.

 

Thanks again. Much appreciate the feedback from upgrading from version 2014

I've never noticed anything like that

[Dean Downey]

When you move an item such as notes or dimensions there is a shadow/image of what you are moving grayed out.

 

thx

I believe that's the 'display temporary dimensions' setting in System Options.

[Dean Downey]

I don't think so. Here is a screen shot.

It's the gray outline/shadow behind the 9'-0" x 12'-0" note that I am moving.

 

Cheers.

I don't know of a way to shut it off.  Not always possible but if you can use "Move Block" you won't get the shadow.

It's not a shadow ... it's a ghost to show where you are moving an item from.

 

I don't know how to turn it off either, but in colour options, if you have a really light grey, try changing it to a lighter grey or even white ... It's possible this may affect other items though.

Softplan please take note. Please make a way to turn this off. It’s very irritating to old users such as myself.

[Dean Downey]

Agreed. Especially in instances of minute moving.
