Select and Deselect all

[Wolfgang Lohr]

Hi

First of all: Thanks for this wonderful software.

I have switched now from old version 4 to new version 5.
I like the new styled menues, for me personally more easy to use then the old style, but I think it depends on personal preferences.

One thing I miss on the new version is the “Select all” and “Deselect all” buttons (or I’m just to stupid to find them), for me some of the most important ones.
After trying a little, I found that “Ctrl-A” still works, but surprisingly not directly after opening a drawing.
I first had to switch off the control net, then switch it on again and then it works.

Could this be a bug?
Can we get buttons back in one of the next releases?

Thanks again and best regards
Wolfgang

I too am having trouble finding “Select All”.

Well spotted with the work around of switching Control Net on and off – works a treat so it looks like a bug to me. Has anybody else had this problem?
All the best
John

Hi
When you right click on the screen you get “deselect all” tool.
Is that one you’re looking for?
To select all it’s not a problem isn’t it?

Hi
Select is the problem, Not Deselect.

I also spent a long time searching for “Select All” amongst the menus but I could not find it. “Ctrl A” will not ‘Select All’ unless you first switch Control Net on and then off.

How do you Select All?

All the best
John

Well,
keep pushed both left botton of yr mouse and ctrl, go over with the cursor anywhere on yr model you want to be highligthed,
all control points/lines will be selected.
I do not know any other better option!
