Selector

Selector

The Selector is a tool for selecting many bricks at once. Currently, you can delete many bricks, cut brick selections, copy and paste brick selections from this tool.

Getting Started

There are a few ways to select bricks with this tool. This includes:

  • Clicking a brick with the tool and resizing the selection box with the handles.
  • Clicking a brick with the tool, and then Ctrl-clicking another brick to expand the selection box.

For reference, this is what the selection box and its adjustment handles looks like.

Selector Box

You can also adjust the selection box more precisely (under the size of a stud) by holding the Fine Selection keybinding.

Deleting, Cutting, Copying and Pasting Selections

These actions with the selector all use the standard PC keybindings, although there's an additional keybinding to retain ownership when pasting bricks called Advanced Paste Selection.
