True to select similar faces for PatternTypes 1 and 2, false to not. (see Remarks)

Return Value

Before calling this method:

1. Call IDimXpertPart::GetDimOption to get an instance of IDimXpertDimensionOption.
2. Set IDimXpertDimensionOption::FeatureSelectorOptions to swDimXpertFeatureSelectorOption_Default to enable the FindAll property. If IDimXpertDimensionOption::FeatureSelectorOptions is set to anything other than the default, the FindAll setting is not in force.)
3. Populate Option with the instance of IDimXpertDimensionOption.
4. Select the features according to PatternType:
   1. If PatternType is linked, then select one feature to automatically select all features of the pattern.
   2. If PatternType is manual or collection and FindAll is set to true, then select one feature to automatically select all similar features on the face.
5. Set the selection mark for each selected feature to a unique value that is greater than 50.
