Doug, > Have you built a dialog similar to the 'Select Objects by Name' dialog? No. But I think we need more than just the selection dialog. I think we need to implement three things; 1) "Select Objects by Name" Dialog 2) "Select Objects by Clicking On Them" PXP function 3) "Select Objects by Drawing Marquee" PXP function The combination of these three features in a PXP would make object selection very easy. They should be designed to resemble, as closely as possible, similar features already present in 3DS so as to maintain a consistant look and feel for users. I would like to propose a joint mini development effort among the beta testers. We could easily come up with these features in a couple of days and post the code here for anyone to use freely in their projects. I volunteer to create item 2 or 3. I hope you will volunteer to create item 1 since you've already mentioned your intention of doing so. If you agree, all we need is one other person to take item 2 or 3. Do we have any other takers? Any other suggestions for other features to make object selection easier? Danny…
