ralph09 Posted November 3, 2010 Share Posted November 3, 2010 Hi all, I would like to know if it is possible to perform an operation and retain your selection once the operation completes, in order to perform another operation on the same selection. For example; say I select a number of lines within a model that I want to move and rotate. Currently I select the lines, move them, select them again, then rotate them. Is it possible to avoid having to select all the same lines for a second time? Many thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rkmcswain Posted November 3, 2010 Share Posted November 3, 2010 One way is when you execute the second command, at the 'select objects' prompt, type in P (for previous), then enter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReMark Posted November 3, 2010 Share Posted November 3, 2010 Sounds like you need a version of the Move, Copy and Rotate command (MoCoRo) that is available in full AutoCAD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbroada Posted November 3, 2010 Share Posted November 3, 2010 not directly but when asked to select items for the 2nd time press P (for previous) which will recreate the most recent selection set. Objects can be added or removed as required which will create a new "previous" selection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ralph09 Posted November 3, 2010 Author Share Posted November 3, 2010 Thankyou all for that! I haven't heard of that ability before, so I'll try it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
