All objects in the Structural Detailing task have properties that you can edit. Using the Select command on the vertical toolbar, you select the object to edit or work with.
An important part of the Select command is the Locate Filter box that appears on the ribbon. The Locate Filter box contains the available, predefined filters for the Select command. When you choose a filter in the Locate Filter box, the software allows you to select only the filtered objects in a graphic view and in the Workspace Explorer. For example, if you select Seams, you can select only seams in a graphic view or in the Workspace Explorer.
