MSasu Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 You may select the "XRef" filter (automatically added when attach reference drawings) and check the Invert filter option (see at bottom of filters box on Layers palette). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samifox Posted March 6, 2014 Author Share Posted March 6, 2014 so there is no official way? like () Include Xref Layers ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MSasu Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 The only alternative I see will be to define a layers filter and use for name criteria "ReferenceDrawing'sName*" (add one table entry for each attached drawing). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rkmcswain Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 You can create a layer filter to exclude ALL xrefs using this filter string: [size="4"]~*|*[/size] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MSasu Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 Please check the help of WCMATCH AutoLISP function for usage of wild-card characters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike_Taylor Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 wow thanks what is the logic? All X-Refs contain the | character, the '~' specifies for the filter to not include. The * indicates any combination of characters. So, you're telling the filter to not include any layer containing a | in it with any set of character before or after the bar (so all x-refs).
