SelectionSet

Anonymous — Mon, 31 Jul 2000 21:14:46 GMT

Hello

In a SelectionSet, i know select all objects in the layer "MYLAYER"

In an other selectionSet, i know select all blocks named "MYBLOCK"

But i don't know select in a SelectionSet all the blocks named "MYBLOCK"
AND are ALSO in the layer "MYLAYER"

object.Select Mode[, Point1][, Point2][, FilterType][, FilterData]

How define the FilterType, and FilterData to do that

Thanks for your help

Include multiple fields and they will automatically be AND'ed together. For
example, to gather all block inserts named "MYBLOCK" on layer "MYLAYER":

Dim fType(2) As Integer, fData(2) As Integer

fType(0) = 8: fData(0) = "MYLAYER"
fType(1) = 0: fData(1) = "INSERT"
fType(2) = 2: fData(2) = "MYBLOCK"

You can also use group code -4 along with OR and AND to construct more
complex filters. Look up selection set filters in the online LISP help for
detailed information.

Thank you very much for your help
I use the first method

With Lisp i use group code -4, but with VBA i don't know how to do it

Use it almost exactly the same way:

fType(0) = 8: fData(0) = "MYLAYER"
fType(1) = -4: fData(1) = " fType(2) = -4: fData(2) = " fType(3) = 0: fData(3) = "INSERT"
fType(4) = 2: fData(4) = "MYBLOCK"
fType(5) = -4: fData(5) = "AND>"
fType(6) = 0: fData(6) = "LINE"
fType(7) = -4: fData(7) = "OR>"

There's a routine named BuildFilter in the VB section of my web site that
might make this a little easier, just pass it two variants and your filter
values like so:
BuildFilter fType, fData, 8, "MYLAYER", -4, " "", _
0, "LINE", -4, "OR>"

Then you can use the variants (now filled with arrays) for your filter. Hope
this helps.
