Cancellation and deselection

Basically any selection, any started command can be interrupted completely with the Esc key on the keyboard.

Another easy and comfortable way to cancel or terminate an active running command is to pick any empty location in the 3D View with the left mouse button, or simply start another command. This works for the majority of commands of the software.

Deselection of geometrical objects similar works with a picking action in the 3D View. It will deselect all objects. If a new geometrical object has been selected, without the Ctrl key, all previous objects are deselected automatically. Individual objects can be deselected, while keeping the others still selected, by holding the Ctrl key down and selecting the object again.

Please take note that some commands or functions remain active when started. In some cases they even block other commands or certain operations to be started. These commands will not be terminated by the above described method. Usually they can only be closed or stopped by clicking on the command icon a second time. The console line at the bottom of the FASTSUITE Edition 2 window will inform the user about the active state of such command.
