Can we add one more key command to the selection tool? In Vectorworks 8 (in 2D) you could select a series of objects by holding down the shift key and using the rectangular selection tool select blocks of data/lines. For example, I could quickly select all exterior elements of a floor plan for use somewhere else, paste it, and quickly delete any unwanted lines or information. Now, it seems I can do this to a point but if I overlap when I go to my next block, I "deselect" those items that occur in the overlap. I've tried other key combos like shift/alt but they still produce this delection process. This was a handy feature which now seems to have been lost.
