Multiple surface selction in FloEFD
 
Hi there,
I am trying to apply a surface source on die inner cavtity. Therefor I need to select quite a lot of little surfaces which are very hard to select by clicking each and every single on.

Is there a way to select multiple surfaces via polygon or rectengular drag courser in the FloEFD selction window?

Regards

I don't know how to select multiple surfaces at once. But a useful feature for selecting specific surfaces is to right click and use "select other" button. There you can select the specific face you want.

yes this is difficult. i cut the modell and mark every surface with one click. it is still fast with 100 surfaces.

there is also a function - there you can save a selection. But you still have to click it.

Thank you guys anyway.
Yes its very difficult, haven't found a proper solution yet.

If that isn't possible in the CAD system then it is also not possible in FloEFD/SWFS.
Depending on how many surfaces you have to select and how many you don't have to select, you can also try it the other way around and deselect the ones you don't need from all of the selected ones.
