Cannot select any object

Ignition
1

Hi,

I don`t know what happened after editing some pipes, but when I select the toggle icon to select the other object, I cannot click on any other object, and even if I change the "Deep Select" when I click again on any object, then the deep select jumps to Root, so the only way to select an object is to find it in Container tree and I have to close and open the designer to bring it back to normal.
Has anyone had the same experience?
Thanks.

Sounds like a bug. I would contact IA support and report it as such.

I have the same exact issue. The only solution I have found is to restart Ignition designer.
*edit Talked to support and they are aware of the bug, current workaround is to delete the pipe section that caused the issue or to restart the designer.

I raised the issue with IA, and they are working to resolve it.

Same issue here, our IT guy talked some gobbly gook about a modal menu is still opened or its a Java issue. He was able to open the delete svg object dialog box, then cancel and it seemed to fix the issue, but I can't duplicate his fix when it happened again 2 hrs later.

Update, here's the temp fix so you don't have to restart designer:

  1. Hold left mouse button, drag rectangle across object to select it
  2. right click object, select delete
  3. press no

This seem to work the first time, but 5 minutes later it did.
