[piyush.parihar24]

Hi,

Need Help to choose Preiviously Seelcted Data which is lost while working somehow.

Neither " P " command is working out nor " cntrl+shift+L "

I selected some 5-6 line among the one huge line. But before i come to final action, by mistake "Esc" is pressed and i lost selected data, now i want to re-select previously slected 5-6 lines. How will i Select those?

Hi,

you have to complete your selection procedure to make (previous) work well.unexpected ESC press button cut your selection procedur.

so you have to reselct them again.

You are re-explaining what I already explained before, I want solution for that problem.

There is one command which select your previously selected data.

I am in a search of that command!!!

Hi,

>> There is one command which select your previously selected data.

Command _SELECT or _PSELECT and then (while asked to select objects) use _P for selecting the previous selection set.

Even if you don't like to hear that:

As you have ESCaped a command DURING selection you have to accept that this selection was never finished and so not stored as "previous selectionset".

Only selected objects within a command selection are saved as "previous selectionset" in the memory (as long as the command was finished and not interrupted).

Sir,

" _P " command select pan not previous data. I was into the same dilemma that "_P" and "_Select" selects previous data wherein it is not working for me. I am using AutoCAD 2015.

Help me with another solution please.

Hi,

Maybe I was not clear enough, sorry.

You can't undo <ESC> and so reselect something from an interrupted selection.

Probably not.  If a selection was interrupted by ESCape and never completed, it can't be recalled by any means I know of.

Kent is right, but one eye to the Time stamp.

Oops. -I was skimming this thread and didn't realize they were mid command.  I was struggling with a similar issue for a split sec.
