    Not sure if I get it.

    Are you sure you mean Shaper tool, not Shape Builder tool?

    Because Shaper tool does not make a selection of the drawn shapes. Shaper Builder though — does.


    How do you switch to the Smooth tool after using the other one?

    By default Smooth tool is placed in the same tool slot as the Shaper (not Shape Builder), and once you click-and-hold the tool slot to access hidden Smooth tool — indeed, the selection gets dropped.


    Can someone here record a short video of the issue?

    For me it's about the Smooth tool:

    Let say you have an object selected and you want to select the Smooth tool. You have to click and hold the tool slot to acced the hidden Smooth tool. But at the moment you select the Smooth tool, the selected object will get deselected! That's annoying, because then you first have to select it again and select the Smooth tool again before you can use it.
