Hello,

I am not able to put measurement dimensions in a 2d drawing. It won’t let me select between two parallel lines. On the ipad if you let me. But on windows it is impossible. And it is very difficult to work online between windows and ipad.

Thank you,

Hello,  
The problem is already solved. I was pressing the wrong key, exactly the ctrl key. But I have already seen that this was not correct. Thanks for the interest.
