The mentioned custom selection tool allows not to select by criteria of the selected object. I am working on a tool which does this, you'll find a preview version on my website, its called 'select all Objects by the criteria of the picked object. It's not finished yet and there's currently no documentation, so mail me if you need some assistance.

MikeB Posted January 5, 2001 Share Posted January 5, 2001 Under the organize menu you will find the "Custom Selection" tool. It allows you to enter a series of parameters, such as line weight, class, layer, fill pattern, etc. to select objects, I think this is what your looking for. Quote Link to comment

Hence why I told you where to find it. Sometimes you should just create a new thread 😉 Quote Link to comment
