Hi
When in ZModeler mode how do you select an entire row of faces to speed up the selection process. I know how to select a single poly but I want to select a loop of faces.
Thank you
Its called PolyLoop, and its VERY VERY NICE!
So if you want to extrude a loop you would select Extrude and PolyLoop and then go nuts with it.
Well, that tip helped me, MeaLeaYing, but what he MIGHT have been asking (and I certainly am curious) is let’s say you have a face of polygons 50 wide and you want to select just thirty of those in a line. Shift/Ctrl and then drag mouse to create green box over the needed poly’s (use Shift to move the box while being created). No? (I really have to stop trying to help when I don’t have ZB in front of me).
Actually yes!
If you hold down Control and Shift and click on the Brush Palette on the left you will see that there are Select Rect and Select Lasso.
Lasso will allow you to do some VERY precise stuff, like an entire row.
You can add to or subtract from your selection using Alt as well.
You can click inside a polygon, on the edge of a polygon and (I think) at intersections for different effects.
Select Rect is just as useful but more for bulk selection, like grabbing whole polygroups.
