Standard Selection Interface
I have found multiple posts on this going back years and no change from onshape.

Prior to installing the U print we trialled multiple consumer machines and every single one had issues with accuracy when printing mating parts.

This was in the very beginning and their backend guys didn't like the fact my site was embedded inside an onshape iframe. They thought I was a spy or something. Even though they shut down the… -
