Is it possible to select multiple extrudes by height?

[chrispolo]

How can I select multiple extrudes with same height but different size and forms ?

Please help It would really help me a lot

Here's a python script that will prompt you for a height and select extrudes in your document that have that height.

It's in its simplest form, I just threw it together.

 

I've also attached a plug-in file that you can put in your user folder to add as a menu command in your workspace.

 

xtrds = []
def Add_Handle(obj):
	xtrds.append(obj)
			
vs.ForEachObject(Add_Handle,"T=XTRD")

dim = vs.DistDialog('Extrude Height', 0)
sameHeight = []
for xtrd in xtrds:
	height, width, depth = vs.Get3DInfo(xtrd)
	if depth == dim:
		sameHeight.append(xtrd)
		
vs.DSelectAll()
for obj in sameHeight:
	vs.SetSelect(obj)
