In block editor entities should be selected by click to modify.

As discussed in forum, select by click in block editor doesn't work when grid is off on file open. See http://forum.librecad.org/Block-Editing-Issue-tp5716968.html

create a file with a block.
switch grid off
save and close the file
open the file again
go to edit the block
select by click doesn't work, but select by window works
switch grid on, then select by click works again

Operating System and LibreCAD version info

issue exists in current master HEAD Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, but OS shouldn't matter

Solved by "free snap rework": 4174e1502d57dcd43dc9014da75f1cf5803d88e6

The snapping range is redefined to support when the grid is off. Previously, the snapping range is only reasonable when the grid is on.

The new free snapping scheme also redefined the snapping range for selecting/snapping an entity.
