You can select objects with more precision using object-type filters. Set filters using Filter Options on the Selection tab of Scan Tools and click By Filter to select objects according to the filter you have set.
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.
