I am not able to drag a selection box when using the delete edges edit command while cleaning up a surface. I can pick the edges one at a time and acumulate a multiple selection set which deletes fine. This will work but I remember a tutorial in one of the publications on C3D demonstrating this method. I checked the selection settings in the options tabs but it was set to allow a drag box. Is thier any secrete settings in the C3D commands ? Any help will be appreciated. My mouse finger is getting cramps.
Thanks,
John C

I've never used a window. however, if you type F at the command line while in the delete triangles command this will give you a fence. It works well and similar to a window. Just drag it across your triangles.

Great Tip Gando.
I just tried it out and zapped 90 edges in one click.

For some reason the implied window/crossing is turned off when deleting surface lines.

However, you can type ANY of the selection methods at the command prompt: F, C, W, CP, WP, etc.

Type C for Crossing also works
