Editing Objects Part I
Selections for the Edit Points mode are indicated by blue squares. An extra, larger handle
also appears on most drawings. When the Edit Points button is pressed, this is the default
mode.
The default mode for selecting objects is set by the activation or deactivation of the Edit
Points button .
Changing the selection mode
To go from one mode to another, you can do the following:
Choose the Edit Points button from the Options Bar to switch from simple selection
mode to Edit Points mode. You can also use the keyboard shortcut F8
2
(Edit Points).
Press the Rotate button from the Main Toolbar to activate the rotation mode for a
selected object.
By choosing the Rotation Mode after Clicking Object button from the Options Bar,
you can cycle through normal and rotation modes just by clicking on the object. This
could be more convenient than clicking the object, then clicking the Rotate button from
the Main Toolbar.
Selecting Objects
Direct selection
To select an object, the easiest way is to click directly on it. For objects that are not filled,
you have to click directly on the object's outline to select it.
Selection by framing
You can select several objects by dragging a large rectangle
around the objects with the select button:
For an object to be selected, it must be entirely within the
rectangle.
2 Keyboard shortcuts can be configured by the user (Tools > Configure > Keyboard).
