My floor is always getting in the way. I try to click off of things by clicking in an empty space but wind up clicking on my floor. This never used to be the case but I came into work one day and all of a sudden my floor was always getting selected every time my mouse was hoovered over it. Now I can't sweep and select things because I wind up dragging my floor everywhere. Does anyone know what is going on?

Thanks, 

Deborah

Lower right hand corner.  The tool used to be called drandg and drop.  Now its called "drag elements on selection".  Turn that off.

In 2015 there is a option under the Modify tool to Select Objects by face.  I would assume you have that on. If thats still not it you need to give us more information.
