The TAB hotkey is an awesome addition to my hotkey addiction. For selecting poles I usually goes with Vertex Selection > Select the vertex at center > Hold the CTRL + right mouse button > And then select "Faces" and "To Faces". It select the faces connected to the vertex.
With the Select Tool, to avoid selecting faces on both sides, you can go to 'Tool Settings' and choose 'Camera-based selection'. This way it will only select faces on one side of the model.
FOR ME HAS BEEN REALLY GOOD. overall the "selection similar", because I couldn't expect that Maya could select similar subselection of faces, or (I don't know) edges...Good tip and powerful tool for Maya.
Really Thank you for this info. Tab selection and select similar is really cool. IDK why I wasn't using it till now! My favorite tool is Multi-cut + Quad Draw. That combo speeds ups modeling and editing instead doing right click and go to edge,vertex or face mode to edit them. Now it feels like " New Ability Unlocked " popup came to my mind. Really appreciated this video. Cheers! :)
I need to change my brush selection size. How do you access the "paint selection tool" through the Hotbox? I could select it by clicking it in the tool bar by playing find the button, but it cramps my flow. Thanks in advance. -KP

TAB hotkey is awesome indeed. Yup, that's another great way of selecting poles!
Thank you Gabriel, good tip.

Select similar is a life safer.
I come from 3DSMAX and this option I could use it only among objects, entire objects...This is why I'm impressed with it.
Paint selection is my favorite😍
those tricks will save me years on the long run!!! good job! thank you!

The hotkey for that is holding down TAB. To my knowledge there's no way to change the size of that radius as it's not an actual brush.

Mesh tools>Extract off the top of my head. Just make sure you have the faces you want separated.
