Raycast selection works as expected, but how can I use it to remove from a current selection?
-
With the mouse button, include the keys:-
"Ctrl" = Exclude selection
"Shift" = Toggle Selection (inverse)
"Ctrl+Shift" = Include Selection
-
That works fine for default selection. When I use Raycast method...using the Q hotkey ...raycast does not respect the modifiers
-
It can be a bit tricky when using "Q", as (for example) by default "Ctrl+Q" = Symmetry Remove-Negative. So when using the Q key+mouse combinations for selections, you need to press in correct order for them to work.
As example:-
Q + MMB + Ctrl Then drag
Q + MMB + Shift Then drag
Either that, or a need to change the hotkeys from other functions that use the combinations..
-
Ah yes...it was a hotkey conflict with the symmetry hotkey. Removing the symmetry hotkey Ctrl-Q fixes the issue.
-
Ah cool....i just discovered I dont even need to have the Q key pressed tool for raycast selection.
Lmb: Marquee select
Mmb: Drag in empty viewport: Marqee Select with Raycast
Drag over geometry: Paint Select
