Description

Activates wireframe picking mode. Once active, you can use the cursor to select wireframe data according to the current Project Settings. This command will activate wireframe picking regardless of any other settings (for example, even if the [Wireframes] selection toggle is disabled in the Select drop-down menu on the Home ribbon).

How to use

  1. Define your wireframe selection settings,
  2. Run the command
  3. Pick wireframe data with the cursor. Depending on your selection settings either the whole wireframe object will be selected, one or more triangles, data adhering to a particular GROUP or SURFACE or ATTRIBUTE, or a specific filter expression.

Wireframe data is stored with a group and surface number. A group consists of one or more surfaces.

Any wireframe data created with string, DTM or other linking operations will inherit the current group and surface number.

This command supports flexible wireframe selection.
