Changing parameters in drawings

Hi,

As you can see in the example below, I'm changing the scale of a view : 

LearningProcess_1-1683892281695.png

After clicking on the scale, this pop up appears : 

LearningProcess_0-1683892249331.jpeg

My problem is that every time I use CTRL+A (normally to select all) when it is activated, this blue rectangle appears and changes what I type next.

 

This problem isn't only with the parameter &view_scale but any other parameters (&Material / &Scale ...).

 

How can I modify this short cut ?

 

Thanks.

I don't think you can change it. When in a prompt like that, for whatever reason, CTRL+A switches to the text palette. CTRL+B will switch it off. I don't know who uses those commands like that.

 

CTRL+A in Creo is generally used to activate the current window but within some of the dialog boxes, it works like windows as a select all.

 

Maybe someone else has a solution for you, hopefully.

Thanks, both of you.

 

Using CTRL+B to switch it off will at least give me a great way to solve this rather than closing the entire soft.

Hi,

please play uploaded video.

 

EDIT: I misunderstood the description of the problem. My video does not make sense.
