* Select in the different ortho pans + the 3D pane.
Selection/editing handling in a 3D window will retain the same (and more) possibilities as the current online 1.0 version has in it's single view. You gain the 'old school' ortho behavior by splitting the view and setting the extra ones to 2D mode (or set the single on to 2D). There's also no real limit to the number of times you split the window, so if your screen is big enough you could have 16 views
All of those follow the current selection and could be used to manipulate the selection and or model.Willy Tschager Wrote:* Select various parts and then invert the selection.
* Select by type AND color. Say all BLUE Bricks 1x2.
* Select by official/unofficial.
* Select by Category (first name in the parts title). Say all WINDSHIELDS
Inversion and selection by part or color is already possible in 1.0, but I like the other suggestions too so I'm thinking some kind of selection filter dialog so you can make up your own rules.

Actually proper auto scaling (to fit) is a tough thing to implement, I redid my scaling code in LDCad about 3 times now and it's still not perfect (as a result of boundingbox deadspace ). But I agree scaling should only be upon request or after the first load.
