How do I select the edge loop in Maya?

How do I select the edge loop in Maya?

1. In the scene view, right-click a polygon mesh and select Edge from the marking menu.
2. Select one edge in the edge loop you want to select.
3. Shift + double-click a non-adjacent edge on the same line of longitude or latitude. All the edges between the two edges are selected.

How do I select a face loop in Maya?

To loop the selection

1. Shift+ double-click an adjacent face/edge/vertex in the direction you want the loop.
2. Shift+ double-click a non-adjacent face/edge/vertex on the same line of longitude or latitude.

What is Edge Loop in Maya?

The Insert Edge Loop Tool (in the Modeling > Mesh Tools menu) lets you select and then split the polygon faces across either a full or partial edge ring on a polygonal mesh. It is useful when you want to add detail across a large area of a polygon mesh or when you want to insert edges along a user-defined path.

How do you select one face in a face loop?

Select one face in the face loop you want to select. Shift + double-click a non-adjacent face on the same line of longitude or latitude. All the faces between the two faces are selected. You can re-use faces from previous loop selections as the first selected face of another loop selection.

How are edges selected in a select loop?

However, the right sphere shows an edge that was selected latitudinally and has formed a closed loop. This is because the algorithm hit the first edge that it started with. All boundary edges can be selected by performing a second loop select action on a boundary edge.

Which is the opposite of a select loop?

Select Boundary Loop does the opposite of Select Loop Inner-Region, based on all regions currently selected, it selects only the edges at the border (contour) of these islands. It can operate in any select mode, but when in Face mode it will switch to Edge select mode after running. All this is much more simple to illustrate with examples:

What does select loop inner region do in Blender?

Select Loop Inner-Region selects all faces that are inside a closed loop of edges. While it is possible to use this operator in Vertex and Face selection modes, results may be unexpected. Note that if the selected loop of edges is not closed, then all connected edges on the mesh will be considered inside the loop.
