Permanent Selection > Set (Extra Menu)

This command can be used to permanently select the specified objects.

Permanent selection has two uses: Firstly, a group of objects can be marked by the permanent selection. It can then be used later as the basis for normal object selection. This can be done with the F12 Key.

Secondly the selected group of objects can be used as an additional object selection alongside the normal, directly selected objects. This is the case with the command Move / Copy Objects > Multiple Copy, Markings.

The objects to be permanently selected are chosen. Click on objects to choose them.

The chosen objects are then included in the permanent selection. The permanent selection remains active until it is explicitly changed. However, permanent selections are not saved with drawings and are therefore not available when a drawing is opened.
