Click Selection > Filter Options and set the selection filter to one or more of the following objects in the SelOpts dialog box before you use By Filter:
Curves—Selects only curves.
Surfaces—Selects only surfaces.
Quilts—Selects only quilts.
Sample Data—Selects only raw data.
Sel Many—Selects many objects.
After you select objects on the model, you can use Deselect All on the Selection tab to clear the selection of objects on the model.
