Permanent Selection > Invert (Extra Menu)

This command can be used to invert the permanent selection of the specified objects. Objects which were previously permanently selected are deselected and vice versa.

Permanent selection has two uses: Firstly, a group of objects can be marked by the permanent selection. It can then be used later as the basis for normal object selection. This can be done with the F12 Key.

Secondly the selected group of objects can be used as an additional object selection alongside the normal, directly selected objects. This is the case with the command Move / Copy Objects > Multiple Copy, Markings.

The objects of which the permanent selection is to be inverted are chosen. Click on objects to choose them.

Next, the permanent selection of the chosen objects is inverted.
