Contributor AntonTenitsky Posted March 21, 2017 Contributor Share Posted March 21, 2017 Hi, Is shift select option ever going to be introduced? The lack of that option in Zbrush forced to be buy a 3rd party plugin that helped to manage subtools. But I don't think anyone has done any 3rd party scripts here. But this is a "goes without saying" option. I don't even know how you can develop a modern application without the ability to select layers or files. Please! 4 Quote Link to comment https://3dcoat.com/forum/index.php?/topic/20860-fixed-shift-select-layers/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member nalan520 Posted May 23, 2017 Member Share Posted May 23, 2017 It's necessary to select multiple layers whether it's drawing, sculpture,or deleting,This's a very useful and very basic function in most software. But in 3DCOAT which seems unable to do this,Does anyone know what to do?

Reputable Contributor digman Posted May 23, 2017 Reputable Contributor Share Posted May 23, 2017 (edited) The only thing you can do at the moment is adding layers to a Group. Then you can delete a group. Not saying this is ideal but currently the only way. This would need to be done early in the process to be efficient.

Contributor ajz3d Posted May 25, 2017 Contributor Share Posted May 25, 2017 You can emulate shift selection using a script that looks-up visibility of layers and treats visible ones as being selected. It's a workaround, but it works. Quote Link to comment https://3dcoat.com/forum/index.php?/topic/20860-fixed-shift-select-layers/#findComment-145953 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Contributor AntonTenitsky Posted May 25, 2017 Author Contributor Share Posted May 25, 2017 Thank you, ajz ! I'll check it out. However, it's good to make posts about it and comment as much as we can, so developers would add this critical functionality.

Member #000wizard Posted October 11, 2021 Member Share Posted October 11, 2021 Here in 2021.57, from a Google search. I wanted to shift-select multiple layers in the Paint room / Textura, to hide multiple layers simultaneously using the eye icon on the layers panel. OR, click, hold, and drag like in Photoshop. Right now there can be a blank layer created by exporting to Photoshop. If you come back to the project and don't remember what's on that layer, it's a pain to click off 20+ other layers to check it.
