Selection sets

because for now blender can't save a selection of a checker pattern, even with vertex group. or any selection with a vertex that share the same edge.

face and edge sets are already in development as part of Geometry Nodes (via attributes). I doubt you will ever see a feature called "Selection Sets" but all of the functionality will be there in the 3.x cycle

Yes we need this every day tool as default built in , I am currently using Zen set addon to sort these out.

I do a lot of Modeling here, and need to create a lot of complex selection sets to keep the complex as easy as possible . When editing multiple objects with multiple selection sets ,current design of Facemap and vertex group are not getting anywhere near easy managing and time saving.

we are in process of Blender 4.0 now, and I doubt we will have anything like selection sets in short period. So vote them all up, if u find this is issue is starting to harass your use of everyday blender .

I am able to do what you describe by creating a Face Map inside the Object Data Properties and doing an Assign of those particular faces. Is that the kind of thing you're looking for? gyazo.com/8f91409ce7db06884cc397a428f9423a

yes the forgotten tool is exactly like i want!, hope blender integrated this tool in its core. because. the thing with plugin is... some of them don't keep updated. it might not working in the next release.. who know.
