2D (ortho) editing

Quote:No. I mean one-click selects frontmost piece (like MLCAD), second click selects the one behind it, etc. To do this in MLCAD you have to click, hide, click, hide etc. until you find the part you want.
I have an electronics cad program that uses tab key to cycle through the possibly selected elements after a selection click. Pretty convenient.

More or less related, something I often miss in MLCad is the possibility to "laser select" everything in the selection area (visible or hidden by other elements).

There are also two possible modes in area selection, either select all elements touching the selection area, or select only elements entirely inside selection area. Both modes may be interesting depending on context.

Now if several modes are implemented, remains the problem of convenient mode selection...

And the BIG question for me: Roland, do you intend at some time to add part editing possibilities to LDCad? I understand that this is not a top priority now, but I'd be happy to use a more modern tool than MLCad Wink
