Hello All,

A funny thing has been happening to me the last few days when using the measure tool.  I was always able to pick 2 entities and get my distance info, then click outside sketch in space (away from sketch) and the 2 selected entities would automatically be cleared and allow me to click on 2 new points and measure again.  This no longer happens.  When clicking outside of sketch, the 2 points/entities remain selected and I either need to click on each again to unhighlight them or must hit ESCAPE which will boot me out of the measure tool altogether.  I must have inadvertently changed something and cannot find anything online mentioning this other than clicking in blank area of screen to deselect/unhighlight/ clear selection of the entitities.  Any ideas?  Thanks!

P.S.  I'm running in SW2010.
