Using the Rigid Body Selection Tool

This tool is used for selecting springs in the viewport. To add a spring to the selection, Shift-click the spring with the tool selected. To remove a spring from the selection, Ctrl‑click the spring. Selected springs are displayed red in the viewport. Selection in the viewport is linked to selection in the spring list in the Rigid Springs dialog; in other words, selecting springs in the viewport automatically selects them in the spring list also and vice versa.
