Node tool, drag select - short key: How do I select and activate every nodes in same shape?
-
VS’ Node tool: Drag-LM selects nodes and make them active. Same thing with Adobe Ill but here you select and activate every nodes in same shape by pressing option.
How does this works in VS?
-
To select all nodes of a Shape
use the Note Tool do a left click on
the shape and press Ctrl+A on Windowsinstead of left click, hovering over a shape
and press Ctrl+A works also

@Subpath
So cool, thanks!
-
indeed
but I have to correct myself a little
select at least one node of that shape
and then press Ctrl+A
this will work better if you have many shapes

@Subpath
Thanks. Noticed the same when I tried it out, very useful. Like VS procedure better than in AI

Had some trouble with my free video provider
seems solvedi like to add that using Ctrl + A for selecting all
Nodes of a Shape has an additional Effect

Very nice, thanks.
Cool tip with adding nodes. Off topic: How do you reduce nodes again?The Simplify Path has no effect.
-
good question
of course undo
the only other ways i found was via History Panel
( Menu > Panels > Edit > History )or via a Lasso selection

@Subpath
Guess I'll report a bug ...
-
I was thinking about using the " - " (Minus) Key
for delete nodes was inserted via plus key ?

@Subpath
Would make sense with "-" --> node reduction, but it doesn't seems work.And odd: It appears the reduce node function actually works yet on and off only. As if you must deselect and reselect the shape everytime.
Strange ...
