Getpoint near selection

Can you illustrate what you mean with an image or sample drawing? How is the desired point to be determined?

(cdr(assoc 10 (entget (ssname ss 0)))), it's just what i'm looking for, but I need it also for hatches.

Questions still remain.... That will find a location on, not "near," many kinds of objects [but not all] -- does that matter? And since (ssget "I") can include multiple objects, and you want a point near one of them, is there any criterion at all for which one? Your code would get it from the first one in the selection, which can vary even among the same set of objects, depending on how they were selected. Is any one equally valid for your purpose? If there's a Hatch pattern among the selection, but also other some other kind(s) of object(s), can it ignore the Hatch and go for one of the others? Since the (assoc 10) value for a Hatch can be anywhere, possibly far from the drawn pattern itself, would the midpoint of its bounding box be valid?

For better understanding, in my drawings are Areas (closed polylines) with a scale Definition, and the Routine will get the scale propertie of this area when i select a object in it. For example the midpoint of a hatch will be in this area.

I'd still like to see an illustration, showing possible object types and the kinds of locations you want to find in relation to them. The "origin" [if that's (cdr (assoc 10 entitydatalist))] of certain other objects than Hatches can also be very far away from their drawn content, for example a Block if badly defined, or an Arc, especially of large radius that doesn't swing through very many degrees of curvature. Should it find the middle of the bounding box of any object in the selection? That should be close-to-reliably within the "area" of the object, whatever type it is.
