At the moment there is no way to select all entities that match more than one criterion (i.e. layers, colours, object types, ..).

Considering a layer with text objects, lines (of different colours and patterns) and blocks, an example of use could be:
* select and delete (or move under another layer) only the lines with a given colour
Have a look at View > Selection Filter
1. Choose your first criteria
2. Click left-most button of the four buttons at the bottom of the selection filter widget ("Replace the current selection")
3. Choose your second criteria
4. Click the right-most button ("Intersect with the current selection") to narrow down a selection
Do also study the other buttons. You can add to the selection, subtract from the selection or intersect with the selection.
