ExplicitSelection
To create a named selection for individual geometric entities on the geometric entity level chosen. Supported for meshes that define their own geometric model.

Description
Supported for meshes that define their own geometric model, such as imported meshes. For more information, see
Geometric Model
.
Use
model.component(
<ctag>
).mesh(
<tag>
).create(
<ftag>
,"ExplicitSelection")
to create a named selection for one or more entities.
Use
model.component(
<ctag>
).mesh(
<tag>
).feature(
<ftag>
).selection()
to specify the input entities for the selection.
