newbie problem: drag select wont stick
« on: February 13, 2015, 08:16:46 am »

This is my first day using anim8tor, so this is probably a dumb question. I'm trying to follow the directions to model a foot. I can generate the tetrahedron, but when I press "drag select", a box appears as long as I have the left mouse button pressed. As soon as I release the mouse button, the selected area disappears, so that I'm unable to move the points. Do I have the button sequences wrong?
