Title: GUI Feature: Select Connected
Post by: Uffe on March 18, 2010, 08:37:43 pm

Hi!

Here's a GUI feature I'd like: select one or more elements in a diagram, right-click, choose "Select Connected."
This causes the GUI to add to the current selection all (previously non-selected) elements in the diagram which are connected to one of the elements in the original selection.
Great for moving things around in a complex diagram with hand-drawn layout.
Cheers,

/Uffe

Hi Uffe,

Is that all elements visibly connected or also those invisibly connected (since you can hide relationships on a diagram)?

Good idea, though!

Paolo

I presume you mean immediately connected (depth 1).
Also like this to apply to connectors.
Suggestion: visibly connected only.
