Bug in Selection set recall!
-
If I'm working to select and group parts of a complicated elevation, I have a problem that must be a command oversight or a Bug.
When I've spent long minutes selecting all the tiny polylines from my Acad import to create a group for a certain building feature, I sometimes mis-click or make my selection go away. I can't find the command to return to my last selection! Is this my oversight, an SU bug or can SU be that stupid?
Thanks for any help,

Ive never heard of a feature that lets you go back to your last slection, although i can certainly recall a lot of times when i wish there was.

There's no such nativefeature certainly. However there is a nifty plugin; SelectionMemory.rb by Rick Wilson at Smustard's

Ok, I guessed that might be the case...
I haven't found any reference to it in Help, so I guess it might be something for the Wish List.
3DS Max has had that feature from the first verion of Max. Every other 3d app out there has that ability; to create and recall last selections and sets of selections. If you model characters or other complex geometry. It's a necessity.
I'm just surprised that I haven't found a post about that in the SU forums. I love the speed of modeling in Sketchup but the selection process creates too much unecessary stress...but that's not too bad in the overall scheme...
Thanks,

And that's a great scipt, too.
See the thread about it to get more ideas (like it remembers a selection set in a group that you have closed since the selection etc.)
