Main selection tools

The following four tools offer various types of selection possibilities for selecting objects, points, edges and polygons.

In addition to the common methods of selecting objects in the Viewport, the Brush Selection or]Rectangle Selection] tool can be used to make selections by simply clicking on a given object's splines or other lines contained by that object (for light sources, click on one of the lines that make up the light's cone).

Adding to or removing from the selection:

• To add an element to the selection, hold down Shift while you select.
• To deselect a selected element, hold down Ctrl/Cmd while you use the selection tool.
