ReMark Posted December 25, 2014 Share Posted December 25, 2014 How about using QSELECT? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nestly Posted December 25, 2014 Share Posted December 25, 2014 If objects are zoomed/panned completely off screen before the window selection is completed, the objects will not be included in the selection set. It's always been that way. The only way it will work is when using the SELECT command with the CPolygon option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dana W Posted December 25, 2014 Share Posted December 25, 2014 Make sure PICKFIRST is set to a value of 1, and do your selections BEFORE executing a command on the objects selected. Also, as nestly said don't pan the selected objects off screen until the select window is completed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dana W Posted December 25, 2014 Share Posted December 25, 2014 Pickfirst is "1" , but sometimes selected objects off screen is inevitable .Me: "Doctor, it hurts when I do this."Doctor: "Then don't do that." One more thing. Make PICKADD also = 1. No, it is not unavoidable. Finish the selection window before panning the stuff off screen. If you are doing the selections prior to executing a command, you can select multiple bunches of objects, and pan/zoom them off screen without losing them, then select more, repeat as needed, then execute the needed command with the selections still active. That is why the variables PICKADD and PICKFIRST exist, so you do not have to have a command active in order to select objects to run a command on.
