Hello Rhinos,
I am currently converting from ACAD to Rhino and was wondering if there is a simple Function for selecting objects of same layers? I am used to “select similar” in the RMB options once you selected a single object.
use the command Sellayer and choose pick then enter or space you can also use a macro with the dashed version:
-SelLayer Pick Pause
then you just have to select the the object whose other objects of the same layer you want to select. it unfortunately does not work on prepicked objects which is a bug and has been never resolved. so first activate the command or macro then pick.

A little twist on this: if you use the select similar-objects function in ACAD - automatically objects of a certain type (e.g. points) with the same layers get selected. In Rhino all objects with the chosen layer get selected. Is there a function to be more specific?
Use the SelectionFilter to filter the type(s) of object(s) you want. Then do a SelLayer.
