Hello,

In 2.x I used to be able to select multiple entities one at a time, and the selections would persist (I could deselect individual entities, etc) but this seems to be missing from 3.0 .. Suggestions? Am I just looking in the wrong place?

One more thing - How to drag and drop a dimension lable without dragging the whole dimension line around? 2.x used to allow me to drag the number around but 3.0 won't. thanks again.

1. Select dimension entity
2. Move mouse over blue dot that appears at the center of the dimension label
3. Press left mouse button
4. Drag mouse away
5. Let go of mouse button
6. Click to place label
