View Full Version : Selection tag after deleting edges

Hello all,

Could someone please explain me what happens with the selection tags after deleting edges and/or points; will they all be mixed up or will the deleted items simply be discarded?

I ask this because after deleting some edges and points, I'm no longer able to produce a good UV map from my object. Does it mean I will have to create a new selection tag (I hope not, its a lot of edges), or is it possible to edit the selection tag?
I tried selecting the edges by double clicking the tag and then do a "set selection" command but this did not help.



Thanks for the help.



Regards, Robert

Deleted Items will simply be discarded. I did a test with a cube subdivided twice. I used the path selection, made a selection Tag and then I first deleted a Point that wasn't touching any of the edges. Tag was still fine. So I went ahead and deleted an edge in the selection and it basically acted as if that edge was no longer there.
