Selecting can be tricky, especially lines from the drawing tool (as opposed to Tokens or Maps which are graphics objects) I find that adjusting my Zoom one way (OR the other way) can help. Just zoom in a bit and try selecting again. I vary between point-click to select it (hold SHIFT to keep point-clicking more to add to the selection), versus click-drag to select. Both (can) work. I have a theory (not sure if true) that selecting near the starting-point of a Drawing Tool line is more reliable than selecting a distant point on a large long line. But anyway, the tips everyone else said above me, are good.
