Hi Danel.
There is no function in Selection Toys that selects based on size I'm afraid.

The hat spread across the forum after last Basecamp in 2012

So umm pardon my lack of 'research' into these toys, but is there a function to recall previous selection? Sort of an 'Undo' / 'Redo' in the selection's 'universe'..

No? Sheeeet

Cause ummm.... I don't know like you guys, but there's a lot of Homer-style D'OH's goin on when I .... select stuff

Not here, but there are others like Selection memory or Selection Manager...

Just rename the folder as .zip and then unzip it.

There's already a native tool to do that.

would be awesome if you could add a "select all connected" command ..

As Dave mention that is a native function:

...or you can triple click.

All look at it when I get back from my vacation that starts now. I'll be gone for two week cycling - with little or no internet access.

Hi Thom,

This script helps me so much in my everyday work I have no words to thank you enough.

I'm writing, though, trying to solve a bug I just can't figured out where it came from. Although the script works for every type of selection, it no longer runs for LINEAR DIMENSIONS. Not via the toolbar, nor contextual menu.

I've tried reinstalling the plugin, updating the software (14.1.1283), but so far, that one remains "mute".

Has anyone faced similar problem?
Do you have any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

The exposure of dimension objects changed in the Ruby API for SU2014.

Do you have the latest version of of Selection Toys ?

thomthom

Ah, yes - new classes where introduced in SU2014. I'll have to fix that.

thomthom

Fix live on EW. Found a couple of other small bugs that I need to fix in another update. Will post that soon and make sure to update on PluginStore as well.

I have a selection question. I guess if any plugin can help me, it is this one. But I am not sure how. Maybe someone can help me.

I have this model with many (non-quad) faces. And I would like to soften all the triangulation-edges so that I am left with seemingly quad faces.

I guess the best way would be to soften everything, then select the edge loops and unsoften them. But I don't know how.

Is it possible at all with this plugin?

If yes, how?

Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers,
Jakob
