[GIS] How to unselect features in ONLY the current layer in QGIS

featureslayersqgisselectvector

How does one unselect features only from a certain layer?

I know there's the Deselect features from ALL layers button. But that's extreme. Is there a simple way to unselect features ONLY from (say) the current layer?

I can only think to ctrl+click everything, but this hardly seems effective.

Best Answer

If you click in empty space (not touching any features of the current layer) with the select tool the current layer will drop it's selection.
