can i select the edges (red) between the blue edges on the screenshot somehow by one key? I've tried inner region selection, but it didn't help. Are there any script or addon that can help? enter image description here

    $\begingroup$ Hello and welcome. You have to manually select them, but there is a quicker way to select columns of edges. Select one edge of one column, the upper left edge and then hold down Ctrl while selecting the bottom edge of that column. Then press and hold Shift to select another edge of the next column and then press and hold down Ctrl and select the bottom edge of that column. Repeat for every column of edges. $\endgroup$

Reset to default

Not one click.. but without thinking too hard, my method would be something like:

enter image description here

  • CtrlShift Left-click, face-select the region by its corners
  • ShiftH Hide the rest
  • ShiftG Edge-select by direction
  • AltH Unhide

.. unfortunately the 'Unhide' operation has to be set not to select the revealed elements, but that only has to be done once. I wish the default was the other way.

    $\begingroup$ Hi, @Eno, Thanks! It's a bit too specific for a tool, IMO? One of the reasons I enjoy Blender is that it at least tries to keep its tool-set minimal and complete, rather than drowning me in buttons, like, say, 3DS. (That's a personal preference.) :) $\endgroup$

Found it. Check out the addon MaxViz Interactive Tools for Blender, there is an option to select "between edges"
