I was just wondering if anyone knew of a quick way to grab all the points on one half of an object - like when you're using a symmetry object and you want to delete half the points. Especially on more complicated models!

just go into one of hte orthographic views, pick the select marquee tool in the atm switch off select visible elements, drag teh rectangle around the half of hte model you wanna get rid of to select the points (in points mode obviously) and hit delete.

Ugh, all these months and I never once thought to check the ATM when using a select tool!

Thanks for the help!!
