Hi Pilou, I see... But you still don't necessarily have to do individual clicks - instead you can hide things that are getting in your way.
Go to the scene browser Types section and click on the eye for "Surfaces" to hide all the surface pieces in 1 click.
Then after that, a few crossing window selections like this:
Now you can hide those and then you have just the outline that you want to work with showing, or you can also invert the selection. But if stuff is getting in your way you should generally try to hide it earlier in the process as you are working.
Note that for those window selects I'm doing a "crossing" selection, where it starts on the right and drags towards the left. That kind of dragging selects any object that touches it in any way, if you start on the left and drag towards the right it only captures things completely inside the window. The crossing rectangle (right to left one) is shown with a dashed border instead of a solid border.
Also if you know that you are going to want to make a joined outer ring of lines, it's good to just do that during the earlier stages of the model like in that previous Wireframe.3dm file, before you even add the other internal stuff.
