Click anyway to deselect

Support Basics & Interface
1

I’ve been trying to figure this one out and have failed miserably so far. I have border(marque) select mapped to LMB tweak, LMB for select but now I want to set up my keys such that clicking on any empty area deselects. Any tips on setting this up.:cool:

Doesn’t LMB drag on an empty space deselect everything

Personally i just press A to deselected everything,much more fluid.

If i want to select or deselected specific vertices i just hold shift while selecting them.

:osorry was been a bit of an idiot again. I wonder why I don’t remember that click anyway to deselect works in both the 3dmax and maya presets so I will just look at how they did that there and apply to my own settings

Hey tyrant, have you found a way to set LMB-click anywhere to deselect all?

Or does anyone else know how to do it?

I am sure there’s a binding for a global setting for this but I did these at one time when I was experimenting with left mouse deselect and if you add these (or change the A shortcuts to these) in object

@DruBad Thanks, but this makes LMB selection impossible.

So sorry! You didn’t mention that part, I misunderstood completely.
