Hi Wes,
Welcome here!
I think (according to status bar) that you tried to create a string (this creates a submodel) then added parts to that submodel.
You can learn more about submodels here: http://www.melkert.net/LDCad/docs/advEdit
...but your case looks a bit special/complex. Can you share your mpd file, I'll have a look to get back a normal behaviour from it.
