Additional Hotkeys for Selection (Tips here!)

I use these hotkeys for a long time. They are not overriding standard hotkeys and add lots of functionality. I think they may be additional default hotkeys. Or just try it for yourself. Here we go:

HOTKEYS > 3D View > Mesh > Mesh (Global) and add those:

Name of command | Code of command | My hotkey > comment

Select linked | mesh.select_linked_pick | double_Left > Select all connected components

Select linked | mesh.select_linked_pick | Shift+double_Left > Add to selection select all connected

Pick Shortest Path | mesh.shortest_path_pick (Face Stepping=1 Topology distance=1 Fill region=0 SET IT!) | Ctrl+ middle_mouse > Select part of edge ring

Pick Shortest Path | mesh.shortest_path_pick (Face Stepping=0 Topology distance=0 Fill region=0 SET IT!) | Ctrl+ middle_mouse > Select part of edge loop

Select More | mesh.select_more | scroll_Up > Expand selection by scrolling (SUPER USEFUL!)

Select Less | mesh.select_less | scroll_Down >Shirnk selection by scrolling (company for previous)

(p.s. if you want to select all/more/less for curves, lattices, etc. you should go to 3D View > Curve (Lattice...) and add the similar command (curve.select_more for example)
