Adanced Select Tools in Sketch needed

Adanced Select Tools in Sketch needed

 

Hello All,

 

As an old SolidWorks Users, I'am looking for some great options missing in the sketch editor from my new love, Inventor of course! More specifically in the advanced selection tools it's a no man's land.

I would like to add this 5 tools to be as productive as I was in my ex-Love:

  1. Box Selection
  2. Lasso Selection
  3. Tangent Selection
  4. Loop Selection
  5. Partial Loop Selection

 

For example, in Inventor if you have one face. Easy: you select the face and apply the projected edge to get the loop.

But if you've got multiple faces, try without click and click and click again! (frustrating to get this waste of time for a simple feature missing)

 

Here is my wishes to get the chain of the tangent profile. A bit of my ex-love inside the new one:

Hope I was clear,

The "Select Midpoint" function really needs to be implemented.

Lasso selection is implemented?

Which version of Inventor?

@JBerns Lasso selection is not available now. Thanks!

Since the original post requested lasso selection, I would consider this request only partially implemented.
