Tutorial01 step 18: I can’t select edge of transom face

[David Smyth]

I am running on a Mac Mini, 1.66 GHz Intel Core Duo, 1GB RAM.
Mac OS X version 10.5.6
CrossOver version 7.1.0 (CrossOver is a commercial $39 version of Wine)
The trail version of DELFTship, downloaded yesterday.

Apple mouse with three buttons (looks like a normal no-button Apple mouse, but with the little ball in the middle). Using the Mouse control panel, I set the left to be Primary Button, scroll ball button to be Button 3, and right to be Secondary Button. So I have all mouse button control like a normal Windows machine.

So far, everything has worked perfectly.

Until step 18 of Turorial01, where I need to select the edge of the triangluar transom face. I can select the other edges, but that new diagonal from the upper corner of the transom to the centerline is drawn black, and I can’t select it.

What am I missing?

I figured it out: I needed to make just the control mesh visible. Then everything worked just like in the tutorial.

Only weird thing I’ve noticed so far: if I make the window go to the dock, I need to open the window via the CrossOver menu item Programs->Delftship, instead of just clicking the icon in the dock.
