Hi Stefano,

re:

You can solve this by hiding the other objects so only the one you need to work with currently is visible.

A quick way to do that is to select your object of interest and then right-click on the Edit > Hide button. That will trigger the "Isolate" function which will hide other objects and only leave the selected one showing. When you're done right-click on Edit > Hide again and things will return to the same visibility state as before the isolate.

So you mean the vertical lines but only the ones on the outermost surfaces? Right now I can't really see an easy way to identify those using script.

I would recommend using 2 window selections like you show.
