Selecting

This page discusses specific selecting tools for surface objects in Edit Mode. The Surface Edit also uses the general select tools used which are described in the interface section.

Surface selection in Edit Mode is very similar to NURBS curve selection. The basic tools are the same as with meshes, so you can select a simple control point with an LMB-click, add to current selection with Shift-LMB clicks, Border Select, and so on.

Select Menu

The Select menu (in the 3D Viewport header) is even simpler than for curves…

All these options have the same meaning and behavior as in Object Mode and mesh Edit Mode.

Selected

Menu

Select ‣ Control Point Row

Atalho

Shift-R

This option works a bit like edge loop selection for meshes, inasmuch it selects a whole row of control points, based on the active (the last selected) one. The first time you press Shift-R, the V row passing through (containing) the active point will be added to the current selection. If you use again this shortcut, you will toggle between the U and V row of this point, removing everything else from the selection.

Selecionar mais ou menos

Mode

Edit Mode

Menu

Selecionar ‣ Mais / Menos

Atalho

Ctrl-NumpadPlus / Ctrl-NumpadMinus

Expand or contract the selection based on current selected control points.

Mais

For each selected control point, select all its linked points (i.e. two, three or four).

Menos

For each selected control point, if all points linked to this point are selected, keep it selected. For all other selected control points, deselect them.

This implies two points:

1. Primeiro, quando todos os pontos de controle da superfície estão selecionados, nada irá ocorrer (bem como ocorre com a opção Menos, todos os pontos vinculados estão sempre selecionados, e, obviamente, a opção Mais não poderá realizar mais adições). Conversivamente, o mesmo ocorre quando nenhum ponto de controles está selecionado.

2. Segundo, estas ferramentas nunca irão «para fora» de uma superfície (elas nunca «saltarão» para outra superfície presente no mesmo objeto).
