Summary: Selection methods

Initial Comment:
don't know if there is already any target to develop selection methods, but i think this is another thing autocad lack.
- so, apart selecting by directly cliking on entities, we could have
- "click and drag" from left to right: draw a rectangle that select included entities
- "click and drag" from right to left: draw a cross selection rectangle
- alt+"click and drag" could draw a freehand line selecting crossed entities like the one inkscape have
- ctrl+ click on entity (or right clicking) could popup a menu asking to select for example "same layer" "same color" "same group" or whatelse

that's probably too advanced for the current state of Program, but... in the end that's a wishlist!
hope i'm not bothering you, i really appreciate the efforts since now.

Hi Carlo ,
Not problem at all, the project is made by the comunity . anyone can made
some request or improvments.
I apreciate a lot your request ..I already have in mind a sort of
selection filter .. as you describe in the traker.
Right now the qt framework geve me, without any big implementation, the
actual selection methods.
(entity selection + rectangle selection)
I take care of the other point for future implementation.

Regards,
Matteo
