khoshravan Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 When I open an AutoCAD file which I receive from a client, before starting to work, I want to know how big is the file. Or how many objects are there in the file? Is there any command to show the number of objects (points, lines, circles, …) in a file? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MSasu Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 May use QSELECT command to count entities by type. Regards, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khoshravan Posted July 28, 2010 Author Share Posted July 28, 2010 (edited) Thanks. It is a good idea but I am looking for a command to give a summary of all objects, in all layers and in a single list. Is it possible with qselect? As a wish, It would be great, to have "all layers" options in qselect, to show objects in all layers. I am not sure qselect has this option or not.

Personally I like the properties method mentioned by Pablo Ferral. It gives the detail of object types. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually use that method too - but in the interest of future Searchers I thought I add the extra info anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
