modifier keys and manipulator change functions

EvanReeseEvanReese Member, Mentor Posts: 2,135 ✭✭✭✭✭
is there a way to use modifier keys with a manipulator change function? For example if I have a set of point manipulators I can only pick one at a time, is there a way to pick multiple while holding SHIFT?

    It's not currently possible for a points manipulator to specify multiple points simultaneously. Please submit an improvement request if this is functionality you want!

    Thanks, Kevin. I'd love this functionality for the Freeform Spline. The awesome Meta Sculpt feature has a workaround for multiple selections, which I'll have to dig into and see if it can work for me. I would love to be able to make the selection of point manipulators more similar to the selection of other things in Onshape:
    1. persistant selection
    2. click whitespace or spacebar to deselect
    Freeform spline is really still just a stand-in until something like 3D sketches rolls around. Sketch constraints with a 3D spline would be a game changer. I would use coincident/pierce a ton for this if I easily could.
