Selection
Selection lets you to interact with shapes and objects. GroundMaker allows you to select multiple shapes and object. A selection can be moved, rotated, scaled, mirrored, copied, pasted, and saved.
Selecting shapes and objects
GroundMaker lets you select single or multiple items. Shapes and objects can be selected simultaneously.
- To select one item, move the cursor over the shape's or object's handle and left-click. The newly selected item will be highlighted. You must click the handle again to drag it.
- To select multiple items, press the SHIFT key and keep it down. Move the cursor somewhere on the map, away from item handles, left-click and keep on dragging (keep the left mouse button down). A selection square will be visible. Move the cursor until the handles of the shapes you wish to select are inside that square. Release the mouse button and the SHIFT key. The newly selected items will be highlighted. You must click one of the selected handles to drag the selection.
Selecting points in EDIT POINTS mode
In SELECTED POINTS mode all points are accessible through handles. To select one or more points do the same as described above. Note that you must use SHIFT-click-drag (selection square) method if you want to select one point that is already selected along with other points.
