Yeah but the good thing with a lasso is that I only use 1 key when selecting
and moving points and edges : lasso, move, select, move.
And if the point is not easily selectable, back again to lasso, select and move.
That's
You can still use Ctrl + Shift + A to deselect all in paint select and right
click paint to deselect a few.
The hotkeys Deselect All, Ctrl+Shift+A, or Deselect All Using Filter,
Ctrl+Shift+F have always made me laugh. It's a super uncomfortable
hotkey that takes about two seconds to correctly
I think it's best to define one's own keyboard mapping layout.
I started this long ago in 3ds max, and transferred it as far as
possible to SI. It's an ongoing process. Without it, I fall back to
beginner speed...
The standard layout in SI is a joke - legacy nonsense from the nineties.

I don't know what the shortcuts are for the Maya layout, but I would assume
that there are two different shortcuts for the polygon selection tools.
By SI defaults, Y is polygon rectangle, U is polygon raycast, E is edge

Paint selection is probably the best point raycast mode.

There is no a shortcut for point raycast. You'd need to set the raycast tool

Agreed, I would probably give up the deformation side of rigging if I
didn't have it.

Oh, and bonus points because it works with a symmetry map, including custom
baked ones for non topologically symmetrical meshes.

Chances are you've been told this before, but on the off chance you haven't
- learning to work in the Softimage's interaction/hotkeys way will pay off
in a very near future.
There are many reasons people prefer Softimage over other software and this
is one of them.

Oh, you have to be in the default (XSI) mode in order for these hotkeys to
work.
You can also find them under the (upper-right) menu 'Select'

The only reason that anyone should use the Maya layout is for animation in
my opinion. Keying tools are at your finger tips then. For normal day to
day stuff, the Softimage default layout (with some minor customization) is
the way to go.

I personally stick with XSI's interaction/hotkeys when animating also.
I just switched the functions of K with D (and their combos, shift+K,
alt+K) since duplicate tool (D) I rarely if ever use it.

Okay. I'm not sure if there's a preference for this, but I REALLY
want to turn it off.
This is what I'm doing...
1. Go into Polygon selection mode. For some reason, the selection
tool is set to Raycast, so I'll switch it back to Rectangle.
2. Select some polygons.
