How can I deselect a selected object?

[khoshravan]

After selection objects by drawing a windows around object, I want to deselect some objects.

Is this possible?

Yes, hold down the SHIFT key, and select as you would normally.

That was very easy. Thanks a lot.

Another option is to type "R" while in the selection process. This puts the selection into the "Remove" mode and everything you select at that point (no need for holding shift) will be removed from the selection.

 

This works for most commands but I've found that the stretch command is a little more sensitive about deselecting things.

Thanks. That is a nice solution

Also, you can type "A" after the "R" to select more if you have to. Neat.:wink:

What is "A" stands for?

Do you mean after removing objects, Should type "A" and continue?

No, R stands for "remove objects" and A stands for "add objects". Sort of like a toggle in the command. Say you used R and picked an object by mistake, you would just type A to pick it and it would not be highlighted for removal. You don't have to type A at all if you know what you're picking.
