Bring back the Select Tool
shipped
Cristian Cotovan
I disagree with the removal of the Select tool from the toolbox. What was the point of that and why did you remove it? It was clear to see at a glance what tool I've got selected. Now apparently, the select tool is 'default' (which it was before too), but the interface is inconsistent. New users are already super confused, stop taking away useful interface elements!

The select tool has always been there! We did remove showing the default tool (select) but we reverted that change so all tools are shown. Thanks for the feedback!

Is it back?

"stop taking away useful interface elements" ← Descript team: this seems to be a recurrent issue because the north star seems to be cleaning up the number of buttons on the interface, but without providing a way to easily access that feature in exchange.
An easy way to prevent frustrations would be for anything that's removed from the interface, to include it as an option in the command line, or a keyboard shortcut.
