Hi, >> And Beginner(TM) doesn't understand why he have to use RMB to select >> object in 3D View and LMB to select that same object in Outliner. Why?
The outliner can show anything, from scenes to bones and renderlayers. Every item in this outliner is selectable with RMB. This allows operations on it. Using the LMB in blender means "Action". That's in the outliner many things, like enter editmode (on mesh icon) or drag stuff away from it, or open/close hierarchies, or selection of objects. This selection operation is just like using a button. It can be anything in fact, it's a generic system (hardcoded now) that can be extended freely. Could be keymap or python once... -Ton- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Ton Roosendaal Blender Foundation t...@blender.org www.blender.org Blender Institute Entrepotdok 57A 1018AD Amsterdam The Netherlands On 28 Feb, 2012, at 13:54, Carsten Wartmann wrote: > Am 28.02.2012 09:17, schrieb Damir Prebeg: >> When Beginner(TM) finally accepts RMB, he tries to border/circle >> select objects and he press B/C and RMB to select more objects... >> ups... wait... you can't use RMB to border/circle select objects, you >> have to use good old LMB to do that.
