muelb Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 Please consider to change the object selection procedure to a Autodesk-like selection process. Drawing a selection rectangle from left top to right bottom selects every object which is completely in the rectangle. Drawing a sleection rectangle from right bottom to left top selects every object touching the selection section, even the object is not completely in the selection rectangle. bowen192 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joachim_L Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 Would this not get too complicated in the end adding the first type of the selection process you mentionend? Right now we have the per-click selection, drawing the rectangle to select every object touching and hiding layers+select all to get the wanted objects. Added: First thought I have to make a new thread. I was thinking about an extra checkbox for selecting/deselecting ALL layers, but Select All and deselecting one layer has the same effect. Nice one.

muelb Posted February 21, 2019 Author Share Posted February 21, 2019 IMHO this selection process is the most intelligent thing Autodesk ever invented (if they really invented it :-) I wish it would be a standard in every program. bowen192 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dutchshader Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 dragging with the left mouse button selects objects within the rectangle, dragging with left and right mouse button selects objects touching the rectangle. bowen192 and Joachim_L 2 Quote intel core i5, 16GB 128Gb ssd win10 Pro Huion new 1060plus. philips 272p 2560x1440px on intel HD2500 onboard graphics Razer Tartarus Chroma Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joachim_L Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 Or vice versa when Select object when intersects with selection marquee is checked in Preferences Tools. There are so many tips and tricks to discover here. Great!
