I was trying to create a roof recently and I was having trouble selecting the walls. When you create a roof, the walls have to form a closed shape.

Then I remembered that there is a new command in Vectorworks called Select Connected Objects.

Use this technique whenever you have objects that are awkward to select, but are connected.

  • Right-click (control+click) on the first object.
  • Choose Select Connected Objects from the context menu.

Vectorworks will select all the objects that connect. Connected object have to connect end to end. Objects that do not connect end-to-end will NOT be selected.
