[Solved] Select at once all points of a curve or polygon

[Raskolnikov]

I don't know if it's possible but would be great to have the possibility of selecting all the points of a polygon at once for converting them into curve points (or converting curve points into polygon points)... and not having to use the shift button to select them one by one.

 

 

 

Or maybe it's somehow already possible....

You can drag select them with the Node tool. First select the curve object, then drag a marquee around all the nodes.

Thanks so much Fully-breaded Cat :) so simple, so silly , so unseen :D

Unseen, but the hint line at the bottom does give help on how to use each tool. It should tell you that you can drag a marquee, and use the modifier keys for adding, removing and inverting selection.

you're right, I read not so much :D

I think it would really help that when one presses a modifier key the according hint in the line is highlighted. This way the users wouldn’t have to read the whole longish row to find out. Instead they’d press a modifier key and see instantly what this particular key does in the given situation.

Great idea Matthias.
