Topic: How to enter Block definition to dedelte an entity

[Coder]

In genera , how to implement the action at the picked block only . ?

Great thanks.

In VL, a neat trick:

Code: [Select]

(if (setq e (car (nentsel))) (vla-delete (vlax-ename->vla-object e)))
This will apply the change to all block references of the block definition relating to the picked block.

If you want the change to apply to a single reference you will need to re-make the block definition with a new name without the object in question. This is better accomplished by copying the block definition (perhaps using my program here), and then applying the necessary changes, this way, Dynamic blocks would still work.

yep, I have a tool called bnuke built around that very algorithm -- but I didn't give it out to my (former) users -- too many people already already have enough rope to hang themselves
