Hi
 
It would make my life considerably easier if I could free form select objects, rather than having to awkwardly select oddly arranged objects in the traditional fashion.
 
An example of free-form selecting is in use in the common microsoft paint program, whereby you can click, hold and drag around something to select everything within.
 
Any ideas?
 
Much appreciated
