Topic: Select text with integer string only

[Coder]

Hello guys,

Is it possible to use ssget function with filter to select single text objects with different quantity of integers strings?

Example: 2 45 535 7588 and many more.

Thanks in advance.

Sample DWG would be nice with explanation of your goal...

I don't think so. Some post processing would be required.

Code: [Select]

(ssget "_X" (list (cons 0 "TEXT") (cons 1 "##")));2 digits
(ssget "_X" (list (cons 0 "TEXT") (cons 1 "###")));3 digits
(ssget "_X" (list (cons 0 "TEXT") (cons 1 "##,###")));2 or 3 digits

Code: [Select]

(ssget "_X" '((0 . "TEXT") (1 . "~*[~0-9]*"))) ; only digits

If you want control over your selections (ie only filter selected, not ALL ):

I'd try either

Code - Auto/Visual Lisp: [Select]

1. (ssget  '((0 . "TEXT") (1 . "~*[~0-9] *")))
2. (ssget  "+.:S" '((0 . "TEXT") (1 . "~*[~0-9] *")))
3.  

or for Text OR MText

Code - Auto/Visual Lisp: [Select]

1. (ssget  '((0 . "*TEXT") (1 . "~*[~0-9] *")))
2. (ssget  "+.:S" '((0 . "*TEXT") (1 . "~*[~0-9] *")))
3.

Don't we need to include negative integers?
The Op did not include them in his examples but.

Hi CAB

I just realised that my code is incorrect ... it allows in characters.
