Edit > Select Similar

 
 
 

When in component mode, Select Similar selects polygonal components (vertices, edges, and faces) of a similar type to the current selection. When in object mode, this option selects other objects of the same node type in the scene. Select Similar is useful when modeling non-organic objects that have many similar face angles and areas.

Similarity Tolerance
Controls how similar components must be to those in the current selection in order to be selected. Select Similar evaluates each component based on its shape/orientation in relation to its neighbors. The value is set to 0.001 by default. A higher Similarity Tolerance setting selects more components.
NoteSimilarity Tolerance only applies to component selections.
