How can I get OnShape to make 'different' line selection?

Hello

When selecting lines for some operation (e.g. when I am doing some Chamfering), OnShape keeps making the wrong line.
Is there any way to get OnShape to select a different line to the one that it selects by default when you first do a mouse-over action?  

I keep having the problem that I need to select a short line, that is in exactly the same place as a longer line, and I can't work out how to get OnShape to highlight the line that I want. 

Thanks

J

    Use "Select other" in RMB menu or by pressing key above the tab key.

    Right click and click "Select other"

    Classic.. Didn't refresh the page before answering.

    A bit clunky... but yes that works.  :)

    Thanks
