Maybe you could share what you are trying to do and what goes wrong.

For this example I have 3 curves in the Rhino Document. They are on different layers (Default, Layer 01 & Layer 02)

With the Geometry Pipeline component in its default setup (when you first put it on the canvas) it will not select anything. This is because of the * characters on both the Layer and Name filter, with both of these wild cards you will select everything in the Rhino Document which could lead to a huge run on processor time. Only once you are sure that you have the filter in place should you enable it.

By default nothing selected:

Curve Type enabled by double clicking the second icon from the left:

Layer Filter set to chosen anything starting with "Layer". (Curve on Default not selected)

wild card dropped from Layer Name Filter so only curves on Layer 02 will be selected:

Note: Any combination of the geometry type filters can be used, so you can have all points and curves together etc.
