    Hi,

    In mask command set the entities to element.then use shift + mouse button left drag it.(even in any command where element selection is available you can pick element with this option)

    Regards

    Hi ,

    I actually saw one command named 'Spherical cli' which helps in selecting elements around a node for a particular radius that we mention. Can this selection be done in a rectangular shape too?

    I want to select elements at a distance of exactly 100 cm from a particular node. Here window selection is not possible for accurate selection of elements.
