Now that's interesting. Do you know what this "reference counter" is so I can set it to 0 somewhere? Actually reading that lot, it seems to be a variable inside the acet_SSGet function which gets turned on if the :n switch is used. So it only affects programatically selecting nested entities.

Thankyou all.
It could save me some explaining if i could utilise these video captures.
1 picture = 10000 words.

May i ask what video/screen captures software do you guys used or recommend???.

If you have windows 7 then you can use snipping tool

For mine I used CamStudio to make an AVI, then opened that in VirtualDub and exported to GIF. Then used A Smaller GIF to make it about 30% of the original size. The 1st 2 are free, the last costs very little.

You could also go with something like Camtasia Studio which can do all those steps in one, though it costs a bit. I did it on XP so didn't have snip available, didn't know it did video capture, will have to investigate!
