You mentioned "the selection command" but could you please give some more details on exactly which selection method you are trying to use?

Like was it Ctrl+A for select all, or clicking with the mouse, or using the scene browser for selection, ... ?

One thing to note - even when everything else on a solid is hidden other than edges, edge selection still follows the exact same "drill down" pattern as it normally does. So that means that with the mouse for instance the initial click selects the solid as a "whole object" first, and then you can click on edges a second time to "drill in".


This may be a bit confusing at first, because if you have hidden everything else on a solid other than some edges, those edges will look similar to regular curves on the screen. However they are still actually "edge" sub-objects and still maintain the exact same behavior of edge sub-objects.


But probably the easiest way for you to select them is to use the scene browser for selection - just click on the text part of the scene browser item where it says "StyleB" - that will select those edges.

If you don't want to use the scene browser for selection, then you need to use 2 clicks, with the "drill in" happening on the second click that will let you target edges.

Hi andras, just to help clarify - when I talk about using the "text" part of the scene browser as a method to select things, I mean clicking in the area as shown here:



Notice when you move the mouse over different parts of a scene browser item, that they highlight as different buttons and do different actions depending on which area you click.

That text label area handles some different selection tasks, the eye part handles visibility, etc...
