controversial:
* "Select non-manifold geometry" via ctrl-alt-shift-M, or through
the menu or toolbox. Great for troubleshooting weirdness on a
subsurf, or for preparing a mesh for decimation or for rapid
prototyping.
* "Select more" via ctrl-PADPLUS, or through the menu or toolbox.
If a selected vert shares an edge with an unselected vert, the
unselected one gets selected too. Similar to PADPLUS in wings3d.
This is controversial because maybe it would be more useful to
select all of the verts that share a face (instead of just an
edge) with a selected vert -- what do *you* think?
* "Select less" via ctrl-PADMINUS, or through the menu or toolbox.
If a selected vert shares an edge with an unselected vert, the
selected one gets unselected too. Similar to PADMINUS in wings3d.
Also, selected non-manifold geometry becomes unselected. This is
controversial because of the non-manifold stuff ... is it needed?
What do *you* think?
