Automatic Mirror Selection?

Hi,

Is there a way to have an automatic mirror selection in Blender like what Maya has?

Currently, I have to execute the command Select>Mirror Selection (Extent Enabled). It works. But sometimes I forgot to execute it. I just want an automatic mirror selection so I don’t have to worry about it.

Is this possible?

No. There is no option in select tools to automatize that.

Blender has mesh symmetry for XYZ axis, in all modes to automatically mirror operations on mesh, except selection.
You can have an automated mirrored selection, if you use a Mirror modifier in edit mode. Because that is the only one possible with this modifier.
It implies that base mesh is just one half of mesh generated by modifier.
That does not allow a mirrored selection on an asymmetrical mesh.

Gotcha. Thanks so much for the confirmation. I was going crazy earlier thinking I missed something.
