Title: Lister 'Select' Function
Post by: dj_buckley on 2024-08-20, 10:10:12
Is there any way to get the 'Select' function in Corona Lister to do a quick 'deselect all' first when you press it.

If I've already got something selected in my scene, then I open lister and use the select button to select a light, it just adds it to my current selection.  Not ideal.

My use case here is the Corona sun which is attached to a daylight system.  I want to select the sun from lister so I can then go and manipulate it's date/time etc, stuff that I can't manipulate directly in lister itself.  But it kind of defeats the object if I can't manipulate something after selecting it because something else was randomly selected in the scene before opening lister

I've been asking to address it since day one. It's quite mind boggling how anyone could come up with such ridiculous selection method and even more bizarre how almost no one gives a damn about it. For me Corona lister is simply unusable just because of this.
