Do any of you ever experience this? I'm CADding along, switching between parts/assemblies, other programs, going to meetings, etc. when I suddenly realize I've lost the ability to right mouse click and do a query select. Usually I can query and scroll through the list to select the item I want. Suddenly the options don't come up and it only does a standard pick of the first item I click on. I "think" it happens when I am away and my computer goes into sleep mode, but it is not every time.
Any ideas what is causing this and more importantly how do I prevent/fix this? So far the only resolution is to save everything, exit and restart Pro. Quite annoying!

Has your Pre-Selection highlight gotten turned off? On Wildfire 5 this is under: Edit | Select | Preferences
You might try toggling this to see if it "fixes" the problem.

It happens to me occasionally. I usually try going to outlook and right clicking then maybe somewhere else, sometimes it just starts working. One time I went to the mouse settings and changed them and then changed them back and it started working.
