Multiple Selection Commands

You can use the multiple selection commands to select several faces or bends at the same time. To do so, select two cells of the same type.

This page discusses:

Faces

Command nameDescriptionSelectionResultImportant
Select BetweenWhen two faces bounding another face are selected, this option allows you to select the third face.



You cannot select adjacent faces nor bend faces.
Extend to Walls on Same LoopWhen two faces of mobile walls of the same loop are selected, this option allows you to select all the other walls of the loop.



Extend between by TypeWhen two faces are selected, this option allows you to select all the cells between these faces, and of the same type.



You cannot select adjacent faces.
Extend to Coplanar FacesWhen two coplanar faces are selected, this option allows you to select all the other coplanar faces.



Extend by Contact and TypeWhen two adjacent faces are selected, this option allows you to select all the other faces linked by contact and type to these faces.



Extend to Tangent ElementsWhen two tangent lateral faces are selected, this option allows you to select all the other lateral faces.



Extend to Internal FacesWhen two internal lateral faces of a wall are selected, this option allows you to select all the other internal lateral faces of this wall.



The wall must have at least two internal cutouts.
Extend to Holes with Same RadiusWhen two holes with the same radius are selected, this option allows you to select all the other holes.



The holes must lie on the same wall.
Extend to Bends with Same RadiusWhen two bends with the same radius are selected, this option allows you to select all the other bends with the same radius.



The faces selected must either be top or bottom bend faces.
Extend to Corners with Same RadiusWhen two corners with the same radius are selected, this option allows you to select all the other corners with the same radius.



Bends

Command nameDescriptionSelectionResultImportant
Extend by ContactWhen two adjacent edges are selected, this option allows you to select all the other edges.



The edges selected must belong to a 1D wire.
Extend to Convex EdgesWhen two convex lateral edges are selected, this option allows you to select all the other convex edges.



Extend to Concave EdgesWhen two concave lateral edges are selected, this option allows you to select all the other concave edges.



Extend to Sharp EdgesWhen two sharp lateral edges are selected, this option allows you to select all the other sharp edges.



Extend to BoundaryWhen two adjacent edges bounding a same face are selected, this option allows you to select all the other edges bounding this face.



Extend to Internal LoopsWhen two edges from internal loops of a wall are selected, this option allows you to select all the other edges from internal loops.
