There are the following options for selecting 2-D parts in the ICN or
in the drawing:
Activate part (left mouse button)
If you left-click a 2-D part (without pressing a key on the keyboard),
the part is activated immediately. If a part list has been defined in
advance (highlighted in colour), it is broken up.
☑ ICN ☑ Drawing
Select part (left mouse button and ALT key)
You select an element
by pressing the left mouse button and simultaneously pressing the ALT
key. The active part is not changed. The attributes
of the selected part are then displayed in the Properties tab.
☑ ICN
Add part to part list (left mouse button
and CTRL key)
If you left-click a part while simultaneously pressing the CTRL key,
the part becomes part of a 2-D part list and is highlighted in colour
accordingly (including its sub-parts). If the part was already part of
the part list, it is removed from the part list and the coloured highlighting
cancelled.
☑ ICN
Add range to part list (left mouse button
and SHIFT key)
If you left-click a part while simultaneously pressing the SHIFT key,
the range between the "selected" and the clicked part is added
to or removed from the part list, depending on whether the parts were
already in the list or not. If a part list was not yet active, then a
new part list is created in this way.
☑ ICN
Activate context menu
The context menu of the ICN is activated with the right mouse button
and without pressing a key on the keyboard. If you select the Activate part function, the part becomes the active part.
