In idle mode, entities can be selected from either the
modeling window or the browser
area. Selecting an entity in the modeling window automatically selects the corresponding entity in the browser and vice
versa.
When working in a tool, entities should be selected
from the modeling window.
Tip: In idle mode, convert your selection to a new
entity type by changing the entity selector. For example, if you select elements, and
then set the entity selector to nodes, all of the nodes
associated with the selected elements will be selected.
Segments
Similar to element selection, segments can be selected graphically. Figure 1.
