Selection Help Needed

Help!

I got shown how to do this in training the other week and I can't
remember how to do it.

I have drawn a cylindrical part which has various internal diameters
running throughout it's length. I am trying to do a face fillet
between differing ID's.

I can't pick the internal faces due to the outside external face
getting in the way. I was shown away of setting the external face to
be ingnored allowing me to pick the internal faces.

This I can't remember how to do and I am hoping someone can jog my
memory how to do it. I have been flicking through the training book
(Solidworks) but I can't see anything to help me.

Can someone enlighten me please?

Cheers
David

 

Right Mouse Button, Select Other (allows you to cycle through all the faces
under the cursor arrow)

Was that what you were shown?

 

Or, maybe what you saw was setting the outside surface to transparent so you
could pick through it easier.

Think you might be onto it --
Isn't there also an Option to toggle the selection behaviour through
transparent faces?

(Just going out, can't chase this up for now)

 

Yes. Tools/Options/Display/Selection/Enable selection through transparency.
