Draw order

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?

Draw order shouldn't have anything to do with "selection" using QSELECT. What exactly are you trying to do in detail?

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?

why don't you just use the QSELECT or FILTER command first, then use the Draw Order command?

(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?

Try using Express tools' Getsel command [can be used transparently...'getsel]

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......

is there a way to keep layer order?

I mean for printing, which layer is in front of which?

it keeps messing.

old thread i know but its exactly what i was looking for

the script is also great for me.. just wonderin if there is anyway to be able to select the object then run the script or what in the coding would need to be changed

thanks for any help
