There are a number of ways to select and unselect geometry. Three of them are available directly and the rest can be found in the popup menus. Each of them has their own advantages so it is recommended to use all of them.

By left clicking in empty space and drawing a circle around a part of a model, it will be selected. Be careful not to cross any edges when releasing since this will trigger the delete edge feature. If you when drawing a selection return to the spot where you started your selection a popup will appear and will give you a few options:

  • "Select" selects the circled vertexes.
  • "Deselect" selects the circled vertexes.
  • "Add" makes the selected vertexes 25% more selected then they are (but not more then 100%)
  • "Subtract" makes the selected vertexes 25% less selected then they are (but not less then 0%)
  • To de-select simply Left click in empty space without dragging. (dragging will create an edge)

    You can also select a vertex by simply clicking on it, be careful not to drag it since that will create an edge.

    You can also select all vertexes in a polygon by clicking on it. If some of the vertices already are selected the rest will be selected too, but if all vertices already are selected it will deselect all the vertices used by the polygon. This allows you to toggle the selection.
