FAB 3000 has 3 selection modes, which are explained below.
Standard Selection Mode:
If you are only able to select one object at a time, than FAB 3000 would be in "Standard Selection Mode". To select one object at a time, move the mouse cursor over the object and press the mouse left-button. If you decide to select another object, the previous object becomes unselected. To place FAB 3000 into standard selection mode, go to menu: Edit / Selection / Standard Mode.
Add Selection Mode: To select more than one object at a time, set FAB 3000 selection "Add Selection Mode" - this is the default for FAB 3000. On the FAB 3000 selection toolbar (located top right) there is a selection icon with a green '+' symbol. Press this button to set FAB 3000 into "Add Selection Mode". Now whenever you select an object it remains highlighted even if you decide to pick more than one object. To place FAB 3000 into standard selection mode, go to menu: Edit / Selection / Add Mode. Subtract Selection Mode: To remove objects from your selection set, set FAB 3000 selection "Sub Selection Mode". On the FAB 3000 selection toolbar (located top right) there is a selection icon with a green '-' symbol. Press this button to set FAB 3000 into "Sub Selection Mode". Now whenever you select an object it becomes unselected. To place FAB 3000 into standard selection mode, go to menu: Edit / Selection / Subtract Mode.
Did You Know?
If you wish to leave FAB 3000 permanently in Standard or Add Selection mode, go to Options... (menu: Setup / Options...) and select tab "Default Values". Search for the option "Selection Mode" and select either Standard or Add.
