Selecting a group of polygons or.......

[gkanz]

Such a great and helpful forum I just can't seem to stay away. Anywho. Had a question about selecting multiple polygons or vertices within an object using the "rectange drag" method but once I went back to my project I experimented a little more and figured it out. Seems you have to hold down the "Alt" key and left clk and then start draging out your rectangle. Once you start the rectangle you can release the "Alt" key. Once you finish your selection you just release the left mouse button and, Voila. I know all you pro's probaly know this already but I thougt I'd write it for the "learners" like myself. Peace. gk
