Is there any way to select only the via in the PCB layout by using query builder?

When i use the polygon pour option in altium designer, i need to give direct connection option for ground stitching via's & at the same time i need to give thermal relief connection for through hole pads. Now i am using "InNet('GND') And OnLayer('Multi-Layer')" command & its selecting both via's & TH pads. The direct connected TH pads makes very difficult to rework the PCBs...

Regards
Udhay

I faced the same problem but then found away.
Got to your rule editor and add rule like via.jpg and click direct connect and leave the normal rule as ploy.jpg

Hope this helps

I would say you better bet is to search it on tube, Plus there is some info on altium site. Most of the videos on the altium site have now been hidden if I remember as it as been sometime since I have been on there. I found most of the stuff I was struggling with on you-tube. I've only just started to use the import 3D case's and the PCB'S great tool I think
Just ask here as well there plenty of people who can help just ask away if your struggling on any thing as you can't beat self teach best way of learning
