Hi, I'm a new user of Houdini, so I'm wondering if I messed up some kind of preference of some sort.

I've attached gifs of the problem.

Basically every time I try to select a primitive, it either doesn't select at all, even when I drag across (on the cube)

or it selects adjacent to what I've selected (the sphere). It does this no matter if I open and close Houdini or try to reinstall the application.

SPECS:
CPU: Intel Core i7-7700
RAM: 16GB
GPU: ZOTAC Geforce GTX1070
OS: Windows 10

Hi! This is apparently fixed in a recent daily build. Could you try installing 16.5.483 or later from https://www.sidefx.com/download/daily-builds/ [www.sidefx.com] and see if that fixes it?

Thank you for your help! It works now after installing the latest daily build! Thank you so much, I never would have known about this!

I had a similar problem. It now works in 16.5.487
