Metamorphic selection mode

  • Paint - Use the LMB to paint a selection of vertices. The RMB changes the size and hardness of your brush

  • Blur - Changes the values of the vertex selection so that there is a smoother incline between vertices that are just selected (green) to those that are hard selected (magenta)

  • Soft Selection - On by default, Soft Selection allows variation in just how much things are selected. With Soft Selection off, selection is purely a binary choice, there is no falloff

  • Add to Selection - (Keyboard modifier Shift) Off by default, with Add to Selection off, clicking over areas that are already selected will unselect them. With Add to Selection on, LMB painting will only ever increase the selection area
