Clear Current Selection

Post by omedina »

I have noticed that the nice feature of clicking nothing (empty space) to clear the current selection in Irricad version 9.43 has been now disabled in version 9.44.

The below will help explain the changes since the last Beta patch:

Select Tool
The select tool has the following features:

§ The tool defaults to selecting a single object at a time. Multiple selections can be made by holding the Shift key. Permanent multi-select can be enabled from the Settings|Mouse menu.

§ In the single select mode clicking nothing (empty space) will clear the current selection.

§ Window-select mode can be entered by holding down the left button and dragging the mouse.

§ A block may be automatically selected from a block sub-item (e.g., a lateral) by holding down the <Alt> key when selecting. The block outline (irrigation area) must be visible for this to work.

§ Pressing the <Esc> key twice in quick succession will now clear the current selection and return the user to the default Select tool.

Note that if you have upgraded an existing Pro Version 9, the default will be the multi-select. You can change the option in Settings|Mouse by de-selecting/selecting "Multi-Select"
Note that the Release Notes will be up to date (as above) when 9.50 is released.

Kind regards,

Jo
