Select a face loop

Face loop selections let you select several faces across a polygon mesh without having to select each face individually.

To select a face loop on a polygonal mesh

  1. In the scene view, right-click a polygon mesh and select Face from the marking menu.
  2. Select one face in the face loop you want to select.
  3. Shift + double-click an adjacent face in the direction you want the face loop.

    All the faces along the same line are selected.

To select a partial face loop on a polygonal mesh

  1. In the scene view, right-click a polygon mesh and select Face from the marking menu.
  2. Select one face in the face loop you want to select.
  3. Shift + double-click a non-adjacent face on the same line of longitude or latitude.

    All the faces between the two faces are selected.

Note:

You can re-use faces from previous loop selections as the first selected face of another loop selection. You can use this technique to select multi-directional face loops.
