VariCAD 2016 English - Lesson 13/49 - Selection of 2D Objects Video Lecture | VariCAD: A Fundamental Training - Design Softwares

hello all very for one more lesson of
this very cut 2016 training course and
this lesson is called selection of 2d
objects I've opened one of the sample
drawings from the installation of the
program to show you these features and
again on the to decide I can make
selection of objects for several
different commands i will show you one
of the commands but again you can use
this for each command that require a
selection but i want to show this on the
under the delete ok and because delete
requires the selection when i click on
the command I open this bar ok this is
the selection tool bar and this bar has
the capabilities that we want to check
so first one is lines and these first
options make a filter for the type of
entity for sure that under this delete
if I go here I can select individually
entity or open a window and select
things with the settings that are set at
this moment in the program but what I
want is to use this tool bar and to show
you these filter possibilities so first
line and when I go over the drawing you
see that each of the entities that is
not the line it's not highlighted for
selection so only the lines are selected
and this is the same for nerves curve
which I don't have in this particular
drawing arcs or circles you see again
the dimensions are
certain lines points symbols which I
don't have also arrows that I don't have
because it's a special type that we are
going to see in one of the next lessons
the edges and the edges I have a couple
of them the texts which I don't have
either I have this I'm not sure if this
is recognized as a symbol no sew texts I
don't have dimensions and here the
dimensions are selected it doesn't
matter which dimension type it is can be
a radius angular dimension whatever and
these first types make a selection by
type of entity after you have one
possibility which is select all ok you
can have also selection than by the
window and here we have completely
inside inside outside or completely
outside so in these completely inside or
outside the entity when selected must be
completely inside the selection window
in these two inside outside it depends
on the option it's enough to touch the
entity so for example can pick up
completely inside I will open a window
and we will see that the dimension will
be a little outside and it will be not
selected and this line horizontal line
it's completely inside so it will be
selected ok this is the idea of this
selection then we have another group of
tutors and the first one is by layer
which we still did not see so I suppose
you don't know what layers are but
layers are a kind of levels where we can
put different types of entities this is
something that we are going to see also
in the future so layer I can set for
example the layer dimension and now if I
open the window but this case layer
dimension again layer or different one
axis okay only the axes are selected we
can choose also by color and if we
choose one of the colors for example not
sure if it is this one not this one it
will choose by the color or by line type
also for example in entire drawing or
with the help of the windows so entire
drawing and by line type which in this
case was continuous we have also by
object type and the object type repeats
this first options here so if I click
here okay hope you'll have the same
options and this is for the 3d solids or
views practices for the other side of
the program and by work set that I don't
have also in this particular drawing but
basically our groups of entities and
this is something that we are going to
see also in one of the future lessons so
let us make a selection okay by a window
and i want to show you that these three
last functions the first one is go back
okay the second one is to make select
the cell
x so if i have a group of things
selected I can come here and say I don't
want this or that or the other one it
doesn't matter and the last one is to
finish the selection top selection and
the command is executed okay i will come
back one so these are the filters for
the selection besides this selection
there is one special feature for example
that we have make plenty o if I use
these Phillip or Shaffer for example I
can make the normal selection by this
filter or I have this when I go very
near maybe it's not okay let's try this
one if I go near in if I don't click
anything you see that arrow that appears
this is a special selection made only
for these functions here feel it chamfer
and the corner also okay so besides this
we can have some settings done to
improve these filters in these
selections so if i go on the tools menu
system settings under the 2d i have
these two the object selection settings
and i have a couple of things that i can
define first it is the cursor size for
the selection i have in this default
mode which is eight units you can put it
a little bigger or smaller I have this
function also that when I make the
selection if I click and I find nothing
then automatically the selection window
starts for example
I go on the delete I click something and
nothing happens so automatically a
window start okay the other option below
was out to go figure the behavior of
these selection windows if I open these
selection windows automatically in these
directions right-in that pretend I'm
left left left and down they have this
kind of behavior which I can change if I
go and make this okay she's fully it's
very open and possible to make a very
clear definition of this so again I
think this is quite easy to work with we
have a couple of more functions on the
3ds side which I'm going to show you
later in this training course when we
talk about the 3d side
