The message was moved from general AutoCAD 2012 discussion group.
Hello,
The OVERKILL command has a command line version: -OVERKILL. One of the options of it is "IGNORE". I enter the option and get the prompt:
[None/All/ Color/LAyer/Ltype/ ltScale/LWeight/Thickness/TRansparency/plotSTyle/Material] <Plotstyle>:
Here I have a problem. I need to enter a number of choices, e.g. LWeight and Thickness. I can't find a way to do that.
It worked in previous AutoCAD versions. I could enter options demilited with comma and the command accepted all of them. But it doesn't work for AutoCAD 2012.
What can I do to enter a number of the "Ignore" options?
I would be appreciated for any help.
Thank you.

What works if not comma delimited option names?
Dont have 2012, but in lower versions it works like so
(defun c:Test (/ ss) (if (setq ss (ssget )) (progn (sssetfirst nil ss) (vla-sendcommand (cond (aDoc) ((setq aDoc (vla-get-activedocument (vlax-get-acad-object)))) ) "-OVERKILL IGNORE LWeight,Layer " ) ) ) (princ) )
Previous -OVERKILL versions show this (2009 Express Tools)
[layer,ltype,color,lweight,plotstyle, * (for all)] or "." for none <default>:
You can try and change LWeight,Layer to LWeight,Thickness in the code above and see if it works for you.

Thank you for response.
Yes, it worked when the OVERKILL command was a part of Express Tools. But for AutoCAD 2012 the OVERKILL command is native. It was redesigned and behaves differently is the way that IGNORE options do not work, for me and for now at least.
