Lock on current selection
Hi,
Its been a while since I last posted, I have clocked up hundreds of hours since last posting on design of a house and two guest chalets which is my families project for a small tourist business.
I think the single most useful request for me would be some kind of a lock so that the currently selected object remains selected until the lock is opened again.
Example, picking the corner point of a room to make an adustment, I start moving the point but mid-way I lose select on the room corner point and instead I start moving the whole room, the selection has shifted under my feet - my mouse is wireless I have some theories there.
Other situations? selecting one object in a vertical stack of objects from above, as soon as I right click to make a property change then a different object in the stack is selected under my feet and I see properties for that object instead.
There is provision for resolving ambiguity when selecting objects that obscure one another in the plan view, that part is fine, the issue is maintaining that selection in all panels until I am done with that object, room corner, wall point or similar.
My model is complex an dense so I have a high density of selectable points and many objects that are vertically stacked.
I find room corner points the most fiddly and 'volatile'.
