Creating a smart selection set

Anonymous — Thu, 28 Apr 2005 22:55:11 GMT

I just want to create a kind of smart selection when I have overlapped
objects.

Lets say I have a Line at (0,0) (10,10) and a PLine at (0,0) (10,10).

Using acedEntSel I want my selection to always be the Line.

Rodrigo,

I think this is what you want. You create a "filter" for the selection set
with rb and use acedSSGet instead of acedEntSel.

ads_name sel_set;
struct resbuf *rb;
CString csLayer; // in case you want to specify the layer(s) also

// can add other dxf criteria in addition to RTDXF0 and 8
rb = acutBuildList(RTDXF0, "LINE", 8, csLayer, RTNONE);

// you can select objects but it will on the the lines on layer csLayer
acedSSGet(NULL, NULL, NULL, rb, sel_set);
acutRelRb(rb);
