johnengineer Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 I am using the command Draw Order and would like to use the Quick Select so that I can select all objects on a specific layer. How do I use the Quick Select in conjuction with the Draw Order command? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tzframpton Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 Draw order shouldn't have anything to do with "selection" using QSELECT. What exactly are you trying to do in detail? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnengineer Posted June 20, 2007 Author Share Posted June 20, 2007 To clarify, I would like to select all objects on a specific layer when prompted to "select objects" within the draw order command. How would I be able to accomplish this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tzframpton Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 why don't you just use the QSELECT or FILTER command first, then use the Draw Order command? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ASMI Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 > johnengineer (defun c:lorder(/ sEnt fLst) (and (setq sEnt(entsel "\nPick object on wanted layer > ")) (setq fLst(assoc 8(entget(car sEnt)))) (vl-cmdf "_.draworder"(ssget "_X"(list fLst)) "") ); end and (princ) ); end of c:lorder You became little bit happier?

Guest Alan Cullen Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 Use FILTER.....select LAYER....enter the layer name...select ALL Then go to DRAWORDER and when asked ...type P Failing all that......turn all layers off except the layer you want to change the draw order of...then do a crossing on all objects still on screen......
