The left button is reserved for selection. Use Zoom In, Zoom Out and Zoom To Fit from the View menu or the bottom bar. Fit frames the bounding box of the nodes. 3D models use a Z-up camera.

Selecting

  • Click a node to select it and open it in the Command panel.
  • Shift-click a node to add it to or remove it from the selection.
  • Click an element to select it. Lines have a forgiving click tolerance.
  • Click empty space to clear the selection.
  • Esc also deselects.

Marquee selection

Drag a rectangle in empty space to select several nodes. The drag direction sets the mode:

  • Left to right (window): nodes must be fully inside the rectangle.
  • Right to left (crossing): nodes that touch the rectangle count.
