[Bf-funboard] New Keymap comment

[Bol Bib]

that is also whay I said,but perhaps my mail was too long too understand,again...

T
> LMB drag = border select
->does this mean you wouldn't be able to drag+tweak immediatly?
 when working on vertices or just in edit mode,this is something very valuable. 
I understand the usefulness of G shortcut,but click-drag tweaks are just so much more quicker. So I would like this one.



So now a shorter proposal




So my idea was that Click+drag should be tweak select by default BUT that you have a button on the menu bar that indicates  which mode you are in

1)Tweak select
2)box select
3)circle select (NON MODAL!)
4)lasso select
5)3D cursor placement? (3D cursor is not used THAT much)

this way you remove all difficult constructions that come with ,which one people prefer over the other.

If you do 5) as wel you can open up RMB to use for context menus

OR RMB could bring up a dialog where you choose between tweak,circle,box,lasso select (and 3D cursor)



I think it's the only way to keep all people happy
