1.The format is the same as the corresponding options /SURF/type/surf_ID.
2.Input format for SUBSET, SUBMODEL, PART, MAT, and PROP:

The external faces from the set of solids which belong to the subset, submodel or part, or which use the material or the property are built. The segments supported by these faces are added to the surface.

The segments built from 3-node and 4-node shells are still selected the same way as with /SURF/type/surf_ID.
