Selection tools
The most commonly used tools for selecting objects in the GeoPlan view can be found on the Tools toolbar and the Operations toolbar:
Select Object
You can select objects on the GeoPlan with this tool.
- When you click an object it turns red; to select several objects, hold down the Ctrl key as you click them.
- Clicking an object a second time with
Ctrl
held down removes it from the selection.
- To clear the current selection, click a blank area of the GeoPlan.
- If you are close to more than one object, the Multiple Selection dialog is displayed, showing the labels of the nearest objects. Click one of these and then on
OK
to display the appropriate property sheet.
Polygon Select
