Applying Selection Commands to Active Selection Group

Rhino Rhino for Mac
1

I’d like to know if it’s possible to run a selection command, and have it only apply to the group of objects I’d select prior to running the selection command.

Such that I could preselect say select half of the objects in my model,… run a command like SelCrv… and end up with only the Curves in my pre-selection group selected.

As things go right now… I only end up with all of the curves within the entire model selected.

I’m not sure if I’m missing out on the proper process for limiting a selection function,… or if maybe this would need to happen by creating a python script.

Well, you could invert the process and use the built-in SelectionFilter… Bring that up and right-click in the “curves” checkbox, that will make it possible to only select curves in the file. Then do your selection of “half the objects in your model”. Only the curves in that “half” will be selected.
