Selecting Objects¶
There are several ways to select an object from the current Active Document:
Viewport Left Mouse Button Click¶
Left-Click on an object in the Viewport to select. The new selection will replace the old selection.
Hold the SHIFT key to add the new object to the existing selection.
Clicking an already selected object while holding SHIFT will remove it from the selection.
Document Explorer¶
The Document Explorer panel is located by default in the upper right corner of the UI above the Object Properties Panel.
It lets you select any object from any document, not just from the current Active Document:
Left-Click the object name in the Document Explorer.
Hold down the Left Mouse Button and drag to select multiple objects in one sweep.
Hold down the CTRL key and Left-Click individual objects to add/remove from the selection.
Hold down the SHIFT key and Left-Click the first and last objects to select a range.
Double-Click the object name in the Document Explorer to both select and Zoom Extents (Focus) on the object in the viewport (v1.0.27 and higher)
Double-Click In A Source List¶
Some Objects like Point Region Of Interest and Mesher provide a list of Source Objects.
Double-clicking an Object’s name in the Source List will automatically select the respective Source Object, effectively navigating “up” the node graph.
