Box Selection of entities

Oct 17, 2007 2 Replies

Hi all, I'm trying to select a number of bodies in a multi-body part. Do I have to select each part individually or is there a box selection command that will do this? Dragging the mouse from left to right and putting a bounding box around the parts doesn't seem to work! Am I missing a trick here or just been dense? Regards, David



You can select the bodies in mass from the bodies folder by picking them using typical windows selection techniques like single pick, hold shift, last pick will pick all between first and last selected bodies in the list, or you can ctrl click for single non-adjacent bodies etc.

David,

If you show your Selection Filter Toolbar, and pick "Bodies" as the selection filter, you can then fence select your bodies in the SolidWorks Window.
