Selection overlaps graphical element

Help Document

Diagnosis

You are either

• creating graphical elements by converting from existing non-graphical elements (input/output fields, text fields).
  
  By choosing Select block end, you have defined a rectangular area where the elements are supposed to be converted to graphical elements. However, the rectangular area already contains complete or partial graphical elements.
  
• creating a radio button group by grouping together at least two radio buttons.
  
  The position of the selected radio button and the cursor determine the opposing corners of the rectangular area where the radio button group is expected. This area contains complete or partial graphical elements which cannot be grouped together in a radio button group because they are not radio buttons.

System Response

Unable to perform the desired operation.

Procedure

Define the rectangular area so that the elements to be converted or grouped together are completely within the area and other elements are completely excluded.
