Selection and Clear Selection annoyances ???

dave_franchino

Hey folks, 

I might be missing something but one "feature" of my implementation or use of Onshape that I find truly annoying is that selecting various objects in Part Studio appears to be "additive" - meaning instead of having to hold down shift or control, when you select objects sequentially they ALL remain highlighted instead of just the last one. This can be cleared with a "right click" and "clear selection" but is NOT cleared by hitting the escape key which feels like it would have been the logical thing.  

It's a trivial thing but I find it slows me down and it's annoying as heck. Am I missing something here? Is there a trick or a reason that this is the case?

Thanks!

Dave

The Shortcut to clear all is the space bar. The escape key clears the current command you are in. Very useful once you learn it.
