Stuck in "choose layer" mode...?
Okay... Sorry to appear on these forums as the annoying newbie with the silly questions, but the situation I've encountered is so odd I have no idea where I should search for help. I'm pretty much totally new to CC(3), been just playing around with stuff for a couple of nights. I have the basics down pat, or so I think.
Suddenly when I was adding some symbols and rotating them I entered some kind of mode where I am no longer able to select entities. Whenver I click any tool, say the Erase tool, I get a mouse pointer cursor instead of a crosshair/box, and the prompt says "Layer name [dialog]:". The only tool I'm able to use on single entities are the quick move and quick rotate tools as far as I've found. I have no idea what caused this and nothing I do seems to help... So I need help
I'm usually good at learning software on my own but right now CC3 is not really working for me as I'm unable to edit anything I put into the map in any way except on a layer-wide level.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

You should also be able to do this from Tools -> Options -> Select Method -> Dialog or Popup.
