Intelligent selection wish

Hi Pascal.
Sorry for being late … I had not seen your reply :blush:

Ah, OK.
I though we were talking about some more pixel …
I Did not think I was able to pick things within such a small tolerance … :smile:

Thanks for replying !

Hi all - there is the beginnings of a possible solution to this in the next WIP , see if it does anything useful. Run testBypassSelectionMenu and make selections - you get no questions - the selection tries for the closest object. Mikko’s comment : " The first choice is primarily the object visually closest to the cursor and secondarily the object closest to camera."

In cases where you get the wrong thing, a slow right click selects with the good old menu. If it also pops up the context menu, after the selection, Esc (for now at least) dismisses that.

Hi Pascal

( Sorry, I could not use the WIP )
Now I can test this on a V6 Eval and … from some initial test, it works really fine !

Thanks a lot, Pascal and Mikko !

This is how SW works. You get the default selection based on a fixed hierarchy unless you RMB to choose the selection cycler.
