Eraser tool

[KarolDaniluk]

Hello
Could you please add eraser tool to AD?
It would be very helpful especially to remove road tiles between the buildings.
Thanks

What do you mean by eraser tool? Would it be a shortcut?

Do you already know you can right click on any tile to delete it?

[StingMcRay]

*Or selecting the objects you want to delete, and press [Del]/[Delete]-key

[KarolDaniluk]

I know i can do that, but that requires a lot of clicking. The eraser tool works as click and drag - deleting everything that it touches. Just like eraser in paint.

[FroggieFrog]

So something like a "right click drag" function would be sufficient?

The Broom method....

@FroggieFrog If that is possible to make that then we should change the Mouse Arrow icon too, to the Broom Icon.

[KarolDaniluk]

Yup, functionality would be the same. I thought however about broom or eraser icon somewehere on the toolbar and activated by left click and hold. That would be easier to find and understand by new users. Personally I didn't know that right-click deletes objects until you told me.

Yes it is sometimes not so easy to find all possible functions. There is already an issue for that (#196).

You can also check the settings menu. There are some Hotkeys (that also can be changed).
