The first thing to do is to tell AutoCAD when you want the selection preview to happen. From the Selection tab of the Options dialog, find the Preview section in the lower right.<\/p>\n<p>By default, both options of the selection preview are checked. Turning off the second option\u2014when no command is active\u2014will fix the scenario I just described. You can turn off the entire feature by unchecking both, but I like to leave the preview on when I am in a command.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-8963\" src=\"https:\/\/www.autodesk.com/blogs\/autocad\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/35\/2020\/04\/SelectionPreview_1_jqlgjh.jpg\" alt=\"AutoCAD selection options\" width=\"738\" height=\"595\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.autodesk.com/blogs\/autocad\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/35\/2020\/04\/SelectionPreview_1_jqlgjh.jpg 738w, https:\/\/www.autodesk.com/blogs\/autocad\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/35\/2020\/04\/SelectionPreview_1_jqlgjh-300x242.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 738px) 100vw, 738px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"filter-the-preview\">Filter the Preview<\/h2>\n<p>Also, if you click on the button highlighted in red, you\u2019ll get the Visual Effect Settings dialog box.

Default settings that may work for one person, may not be the best for you. In this post I talked about Selection Preview in AutoCAD. Once you know about its settings, and where to find them, you can fine-tune how it works to better fit how you work.<\/p>\n<p>Are there other things that you\u2019d like to see work differently? Maybe they do! Take a trip through the Options dialog sometime.
