Hi Paolo and Tony,

There is a MoI.ini setting to do what you want, it's under [Scene Browser] third heading from the bottom and if you set SelectSkipHiddenObjectsDefault=y,at the moment it is set to default =n (no), then the hidden objects will not be selected.

Cheers

You can also lock the hidden objects to leave them out. Then Ctrl+A, Ctrl+Right on selected objects/solids, Then click edges eye.

Or just click the word edges in the unselected.

Hi Danny,

Thanks for that. I hope Michael is going to document all of these settings for V2. I would never have figured that one out. I also think this should be 'y' by default.

I may be missing something but in what circumstances would you want to have the current default behavior?

No Probs Tony,

I was thinking the same thing when I asked about this back in April http://moi3d.com/forum/index.php?webtag=MOI&msg=2604.1

Thanks DannyT and BurrMan,

It did the job very well.

I remember reading that. But it didn't make sense to me at the time. I've not been using MoI much since finishing the Brain Amplifier. I got caught up in the Ivor contest over at Nurbs and Polys and have been working on a set of IFour Ivors :-)

Well with some of the tools still missing, it seems like its missing, but how else will you "Show all edges".

If there are hidden things and you need to review all edges, you dont want to be forced to "unhide everything".

I think with grouping and names and locks this is the behaviour that is needed with the global click.
