Problem

On selecting a tool, the icon does not highlight.

Solution

There are a number of reasons why this may occur, and the options to resolve this issue are as follows:

-Ensure that the Element Highlight Color is set to a colour that will display:

Settings>Design File>Design File Settings>Color Highlight colour is set to magenta.



-Ensure that Identify Elements Automatically setting is checked in Accusnap

-Ensure Pop-up Info is enabled or disabled through AccuSnap Settings.

-The following setting may need to be enabled:

Workspace > Preference > Input Turn On the "Allow ESC key to stop current command"

then "OK" Save Settings.

The command will then remain highlighted until ESC is selected.
