You can use the Rib Top Face Edges in the Curve rule for selection. Select the face and all edges will be selected

in this case you can also rotate the view such that you see the model from the side, set the selection to "single curve" and drag a rectangle over the edges to be selected. ( the multi select rule should be "inside".)

I do a trial selecting with the fillter "Rib Top Face Edges" and then return to
fillter "Single curve" and do a deselect of one of the pin edges to do blend all but one
but NX refuse to it
 
a984928 :
When you select using the "Rib Top Face Edges", this is a selection rule and not a selection filter.
The rule means that if the number of edges selected by the rule increases or decreases, it will be automatically selected/updated.
The "Single curve" is a selection filter and not a rule. If you have selected all 50 edges by the rectangle method I mention above, those 50 are the selected edges. If you would increase the pattern count the new edges will not be selected because the selection method was "single curve". Only the 50 edges will be blended. You can of course edit the blend and add the new edges manually, or change the selection method to a selection rule. (Right click one of the selected edges and change the selection method)
