Unselecting features that are selected
After features have been selected in the map, you may find that some of them need to be excluded from the selection set. When this happens, you can choose to remove individual features from the selection set or all the features from a specific feature layer. You can also choose to unselect everything except a particular feature or group of features. For example, suppose you have roads and bridges selected but only want to edit two of the bridges. You can select the bridges you want to edit and remove the rest of the features from the selection set.
