Unselecting a single edge 1

Hello,

I have a feature that blends a lot of different edge.
Whenever I try to remove just one edge from the selection, it removes all selection and I have to pick each individual edge again.

Is there a way to remove a single edge from the group of edges selected for the blend?

Try holding down your "shift" key and selecting the edge.
 
Not sure if this works in NX5, but for NX6 do this: when you pick the edge to deselect it, hold down the mouse button until the 3 dots appear. When you let go of the mouse, the quick pick list will appear. In the list you should have the option of 'all of intent' or the individual edge you selected.
 
Thanks for the reply.
I do hold down the shift key to un-select an edge, but it un-selects all the edges. Frustrating!!!

No, you have to hold down BOTH the Shift Key and MB1 until the 3 dots (...) appear, at which time you will be able to explicitly deselect individual curves originally selected as part of a multi-curve Selection Intent action.
