Can we get a paintbrush selection tool? The polygon select tool is currently the best tool for selecting and removing the edges of scans where the data is not as good, but the polygon select tool has a major drawback – you cannot rotate the model while using the polygon select tool. This makes sense because if you could rotate the model it would change what was being selected. A paintbrush selection tool would be better for selecting irregular areas on complicated geometry. With a paintbrush selection tool you could allow the ability to rotate the 3D model by holding down a keyboard key (typically either Ctrl/Cmd or Shift) between selections, making the whole process much faster.

We will consider your suggestion. Thank you!
For me the most critical function is the availability to move the object between selects (at least within the same tool). With this you can select from multiple points of view in one go and you have the possibility to check what you’re about to delete before pressing delete.
It speeds up the process a lot!
Have a look at how it’s done in Shining 3d interface.
Otherwise quite happy with the tools to clean the scans.
You can rotate after selecting with any of the existing tools by holding ctrl key down. Paintbrush still sounds nice though.
