Re: what
Yeah well, I figured it out in the meantime (between when you were being a smart-ass and this reply) Thanks anyway...

I know how to do my research, but I thought I'd take the lazy route and ask around here first. This isn't the google group, this is a mailing list served on autodesk.com. There is a google group out there that's called Softimage Mailing List Archive and says on its home page This Google group is only an archive of the Softimage mailing list, above the instructions on how to subscribe to the actual mailing list on autodesk.com I think I have the password to that google group (it was created by a patrick boucher years ago) and I could clarify that terse description if someone can suggest a better one.
Re: SI selections driving me nuts...
Chances are you've been told this before, but on the off chance you haven't - learning to work in the Softimage's interaction/hotkeys way will pay off in a very near future. There are many reasons people prefer Softimage over other software and this is one of them. Using shortcuts for different sub-objects modes is extremely useful: - T for point - Y (rectangle) and U (raycast) for poly - E (rectangle) and 'i' (raycast) for edge - when in rectangle mode (regardless of sub-object) pressing shift+F10 will activate a rectangle-raycast hybrid mode. Just try it if you don't know what I'm talking about
Re: SI selections driving me nuts...
Oh, you have to be in the default (XSI) mode in order for these hotkeys to work. You can also find them under the (upper-right) menu 'Select' On Thu, Oct 31, 2013 at 4:09 AM, CatalinM Nistor creator3dstu...@gmail.comwrote: Chances are you've been told this before, but on the off chance you haven't - learning to work in the Softimage's interaction/hotkeys way will pay off in a very near future.

Re: SI selections driving me nuts...
I personally stick with XSI's interaction/hotkeys when animating also. I just switched the functions of K with D (and their combos, shift+K, alt+K) since duplicate tool (D) I rarely if ever use it.
