add-to-selection

How about a 2D Selection Tool modifier key that would permit adding to the selection without deselecting items that have already been chosen?

Similarly, it would be helpful to have a modifier that would allow de-selection without accidentally selecting other things.

In other words, a way to keep the selection tool from toggling the selection state of everything it includes.

These would be helpful in congested drawing spaces, so you didn't have to toggle classes on and off or move things around on layers to make selecting easier. thanks ?Michael Young

Does the Shift key not work?

I think Michael is refering to using a marquee and the shift key, this deselects anything already selected.

Thanks Ray ? yes, that is what I meant.

That's the way it used to work for years. I'd like to have that mode back and selectable. There are times I need both functionalities.
