You can already see how many instances have been selected.

Where can you see that? If such a feature exists, it doesn’t appear to be obvious.

I see it now at the top of properties, but I still much prefer having it more visible.

v1.1.1 Patch

New with [v1.1.1]:

  • Fixed ReSelect conflicting with click detection for the path and camera coordinates viewer
    (This was a temporary fix, but I may redo ReSelect if it conflicts with other plugins.)

Please let me know if there are any compatibility issues regarding “ReSelect” with other plugins, or if you have any feature suggestions.

Doesnt this already exist via the properties panel?

#9

Yes, but it wasn’t very visible. (I somehow had no idea of its existence for the 13 years I’ve been on Roblox.)
I personally prefer it above the path as shown in the screenshot, but its location can be modified.

#10

it is nice having it on the screen for those who have them in the same spot, but for those who have 1 on either side seems redundant, perhaps more in depth counts? if you have multiple selected from different classes perhaps on hover shows the exact on each class, idk

#11

I’ve noticed that this plugin has been causing other plugins to fail and parenting to fail. Can you fix this?

#12

Which plugins is this affecting and what specific actions of those plugins aren’t working correctly?

#13

It’s not just plugins, it’s also Roblox. I can’t even parent items in the properties menu.

#14

I’ll look into this and see what the issue is. One of the new additions is “ReSelect”, which basically reselects Roblox’s “Select” tool when no other tool is selected and when no instances are selected in the explorer.

In the meantime, you can disable ReSelect while allowing the other features to run by using this command:

game:GetService('CoreGui').PluginSettings.ExplorerInfo:SetAttribute('ReSelect',false)
#15

I’ve pushed an update that requires there to be no instances selected in order to automatically select the Select tool. Changing a parent via the properties window works now.

Are there any other plugin or Studio conflicts that you have with ReSelect enabled?

Here’s a command to re-enable ReSelect:

game:GetService('CoreGui').PluginSettings.ExplorerInfo:SetAttribute('ReSelect',true)
#16

Alright, That fixed it. Thanks!

Would there be a way to fix the scaling tool? Currently when trying to scale multiple parts at a time they both scale outwards instead of the intended direction, and it’s honestly extremely annoying… I have to use F3X to accomplish what I want (it’s the only reason I use F3X now, apart from easy coloring). Attached a video of the behavior i’m talking about.

It would be possible. I assume you’d want it to work with the existing scale tool? I think I could have it replace the scale method with a custom one while holding down a particular key. I’ll just have to look into how those draggable handle things work in Studio.

This would be amazing, I wouldn’t have to whip out F3X every time I want to scale multiple parts at a time, which happens incredibly often unfortunately, i don’t understand why roblox haven’t done this already, pretty sure people have been asking about it for a long time.

#20

I’ll look into this and message or ping you when it’s done, but I can’t promise when I’ll be able to get to it.

#21

I appreciate that i’ll be looking forward to it, if you can’t figure it out it’s okay, i’m sure someone will eventually make something similar at SOME point, they’ll probably lock it behind a 20$ paywall though.

#22

I’ve started working on it recently and I think I’m nearly done, but I had a question. Would you rather have handles on all selected objects or just the last selected part? I’m thinking the last part.

Also, would you rather have it be hold to use the custom scale, or press to toggle between them?
