Gnomon popping up

[AlexC]

I am getting the gnomon constantly popping up when trying to do measure distance. I pick the first point then hold shift and mouse center button to rotate solid for second point and gnomon pops up. It’s really annoying. Is there a way to turn off the gnomon or change its hot keys.

Thanks

Alex

I think its a bug because when I hold shift and middle mouse button to rotate part nothing happens just the part will rotate as I move the mouse. But when Analyze Distance after picking first point then holding shift and center button on mouse then gnomon pops up. gnomon cancels Analyze Distance, I need to rotate part sometimes when using Analyze Distance anyone else have this happen. I am using 2017 mu3.

 alt f9 does nothing to solve this problem

Screen Cap?

Do you have the Verisurf add-on installed?

Video Card?

Like Mr. Paris is asking do you have the Verisurf add-on?

I don't think so. What is Verisurf ?

Try releasing the shift before you select the second point.

Good Call JParis I updated the video card driver and the problem seems to have been solved. yea,
