Bring back "Select by Menu"

One of the most useful features in Assembly mode from 2001 was "Select by Menu". We have migrated to WF 2 and I have noticed that this command is gone.


I use a lot of coordinate systems in parts/assemblies/skeletons andI name them thenput them on layers so that I can shut them off. This was not a concern before because I could easily find them. Now I have to stop the assembly, go turn the layer on (which shows too many coordinate systems) and go back to assembling the part. Even doing this, I have to query through them to find the right one.


Thanks
 
Ctrl-F is now the 'Find' command which is basically "Select-By-Menu" on steroids... Much more powreful but slightly harder to use (at first). You can also hit the binoculars icon.
