SELECTION MENU • 529
To set or ‘freeze’ a selection:
 Select the elements (points, edges or polygons) that you want to freeze.
 If you want the selection to replace an existing frozen selection, select
the frozen selection’s tag in the Object manager. Otherwise, ensure that no
selection tags are selected.
 Choose Selection > Set Selection.
Although you can freeze more than 10 selections per object, many commands
operate on the rst 10 only. For example, if you subdivide the object, only the
surfaces in the rst 10 selections are subdivided. For bones, up to 50 frozen
selections can be assigned.
