Vectorworks Tip #036 – Basic Tools – Select Coincident

Sometimes, you have objects that are very close to or on top of each other. It can be difficult to get Vectorworks to select the right object. Vectorworks has the ability to select between coincident objects. This feature will open dialogue box for you to choose the object that you want to select from the list of coincident objects. When you move near an object and see see and asterix near the cursor, that’s the sign that there are coincident objects.

  1. It may be worth mentioning that to get the dialog to appear, you right mouse click when you see the asterix and select the coincident object menu item.
    Hold down J and left click does the same thing.
