Select on plan shortcut needed.

Short Cut Suggestion: 

 

I do not understand why there is no shortcut for "select on plan" while modeling in 3D window? It is time consuming to go every time to the menus..

For me there's a shortcut setup as "Shift + F2" in AC28 INT.
Does that one not work for you? Or which AC version are you using?

Hi,

 

In the French version it's the same shortcut

If there's none in your Archicad version you can set one in the work environment.

Could you be using a Work Environment from an older version of Archicad where that command did not exist?

You could just re-apply a standard Work Environment profile.

That will have keyboard shortcut already set up.

But of course you will lose any customisations that you have made.

 

Adding this shortcut to your profile is fine, just be sure to redefine the shortcut profile so it is not 'Custom'.
