The <span class="keyword wintitle">Select</span> pane lets you select parts and assemblies based on their hierarchy level in the assembly tree.





</span>
<p>To display this pane,
 in the Assembly or Collaboration pane toolbar, click 
<span class="ph uicontrol">Select Actors</span> 
<img class="image" src="../Icons3DVIA/I_CPSSelectObjects.png"/>.


This tool is useful to select assemblies and subassemblies at the same time, or to help generate BOM IDs on groups.



</p><p>Note:
    	Because the <span class="keyword wintitle">Select</span> pane is a pane and not a dialog box, you do not have to dismiss it when you are done. You can even dock the pane in the Composer window for future use.
