Select / Deselect All node command, shortcut, context menu entry.

At now, the select all command is do nothing ..

Are you looking for a shortcut specifically, or just for a way to select all the anchor points of a shape? If it's the latter, try clicking and dragging over the shape until the anchor points are selected. To deselect all the points and remain in the shape editing mode, click and drag anywhere outside the shape. Hope that helps!

P.S. Select All and Deselect All options are dedicated to selecting and deselecting the canvas. They aren't really supposed to work with shapes.

Hallo, das Programm ist recht gut, hatte vorher PS-Elements. Bin aber traurig. weil es wenig Anleitung in deutscher Sprache gibt. Für mich ist es mühsam, die englischen Tutorials alle zu übersetzen. Werde darum das Programm wieder löschenn und Affinity Foto kaufen,. Schade drum! MfG BN-doc*45

Great! In that case, my mentioned steps should work for you. Here's a video of the feature I had in mind.

We'd sure love to make Pixelmator Pro learning materials available in more languages in the future, we just haven't got the resources for this at this point in time. In the meantime, Pixelmator Pro tutorials videos are available on our official Youtube page so you could turn on automatically generated German captions there — not as great as an actual translation, for sure, but could help point you in the right direction.

Varjubacsi, I totally get your point. We have a few vector-related improvements in mind for the future, so we'll see if we can squeeze this one in there somewhere as well.
