Object selection mode

Tool

Click on faces, edges, or vertices to select their indices. Do not mix vertices, edges and faces and apply it to just one solid, compound, face or line.

Topology Filter

For easier selection, there is a topology filter

There are keybinding shortcuts for the topology filters :

• "v" : vertices
• "e" : edges
• "f" : faces
• "s" : solid
• "n" : none

Python functions

• select_vertices(obj, indices)

  Similar to obj.vertices() returns a ShapeList of vertices associated with the indices given as list, e.g. [1,3,6]

• select_vertex(obj, index)

  Shortcut for select_vertices(obj, [index])[0]

• select_edges(obj, indices)

  Similar to obj.edges() returns a ShapeList of edges associated with the indices given as list, e.g. [1,3,6]

• select_edge(obj, index)

  Shortcut for select_edges(obj, [index])[0]

• select_faces(obj, indices)

  Similar to obj.faces() returns a ShapeList of faces associated with the indices given as list, e.g. [1,3,6]

• select_face(obj, index)

  Shortcut for select_faces(obj, [index])[0]

Deselect

• In any of the tools pressing "escape" will delete all the selections
• "backspace" or "mouse button right click" will delete the last selection only.
