Please follow the format below for requesting a feature.

Please make an “select faces” option for sketches. I take a long time to select wanted items by hand

When creating a sketch with a lot of details, like text for example, it can be really time comsuming clicking on every single face of each letter in order to extrude them. It would be great to have an option like “select all faces”. Also with the lasso tool it would be great to have the options “unselect bodies”, “unselect lines”, “unselect faces”, so one could quickly select the parts one need.

It just seems weird that an easy to use software like shapr3d gets me to collect every single face by hand :wink: and as said, it is time consuming and also not the best way, because if you are selecting all the faces and make one wrong click it might happen that you have to start all over again.

OH thank you. I should have researched before requesting. This is exactly what I was looking at. Important to note, that selecting faces does not work when being in sketch mode, but that of course makes sense.
