Iterate through Entities

[Anonymous]

Hello,

I am new to AutoCAD Customization and learning few things.

But I would like to know like we have model space and paper space, is it possible to iterate through entities of these.

Few Drawings may not be repeated in paper space.

It can have Blocks, Tables, Texts, Polylines. I need to iterate entities of these sheets separately.

Regards,

Kumuda

Mr Spider has already answered your question here - I needn't repeat what he has said:

but what is your purpose in iterating through it all? it can be a very slow process if you have many objects in your drawing. maybe it is better if you used a selection filter. just get the objects you need and do what you need to do.

regards

Ben

@BKSpurgeon,

Iterating through entities is not slower than using selectAll with a SelectionFilter.

SelectAll does iterate through entities (how could it be otherwise).

See my reply in this topic.
