let’s say I have 2 parallel curves that are close to each other… I would like to select the nodes of one of the 2 curves without also taking the nodes of the other.
how do I do it?
if I box the nodes I also intercept the nodes of the other curve and I haven’t found a button to select or exclude individual nodes so as to form a group that I can move all together without moving near parts that I don’t want to touch.
I simulated a situation where by squaring some nodes I take one that I would like to exclude from the group, please can you tell me how to do it?
on windows i cant find a button that allows me to select and deselect a single node.
i can select a set of nodes by making a box but i cant find any button that allows me to deselect or add a node to the selected group.
I thought that by pressing ctrl + mouse on a node I could exclude/include it, but it doesn’t work.
sometimes i select a group of nodes and move them all together but i can do it only if there are no other nodes that i don’t want to move.
in the screenshot i roughly drew an example in which with the box you can’t avoid also taking a node that i would like to understand if it can be deselected individually.
I tried every key combination I could think of and was not able to deselect a node once it’s been selected. I looked in the docs and there is no mention of this function either.
What you can do though is select a node(s) and hold shift and click to add nodes to the selection.
using shift I can only select individual nodes but I can’t deselect them, it would be enough if shift worked both to turn them on and off.
in this way by framing various nodes in a box I could choose to deselect the ones I don’t want to move.
this doesn’t seem possible now, I hope it should be possible in the new versions, maybe it would be useful.
in windows i tried all the keyboard with shift or ctrl combinations and none of them works.
i trust that in the future it will be solved, being able to select/deselect specific nodes would be very useful.
