My opinion, also, is that if this sort of thing is added to the program, it needs to be something that can be toggled off. It would just be a distraction to me.

Again, just my opinion.

If you click on an entity you want entity, if you click in open space you are going to do an area selection (clicking F1 after your area box starts dragging still gives you crossing). If you Ctrl+click on an entity you want group. If you Ctrl+click in open space you want a fence area.

These are good ideas for this subject. I like them pretty much.

Thanks,
Miguel

When you use only one software, to use shortcut keyboard keys well you are amused, but it assumes that the professional uses 5 softwares, would be well difficult, it besides dominating its problem professional, has that to turn 5 ambulant dictionaries. I consider that the tracer, the engineer, and mainly the architect has a strong visual reasoning and the icons are alive tracks for its work.

And more a reason to use the cursor assuming visual selection is that the precision points are invisible in DataCAD.

I do not go to arrest my breath, as much says the users of the forum, but go to create icons and to past symbols above of the keys F1, F2, F3 and F4 of my keyboard. It is a solution to see and to wait.
