Select text filterlist
« on: July 23, 2009, 06:03:02 AM »
I need to filter text objects that ends with a certain suffix, eg 12.123IL.
How to go about it?
Using (ssget (list (cons 0 "TEXT"))) selects all the text. Any more to add to be more specific so that all texts ends with an IL?
thanks

Hi

With string values, the filter accepts wildcard patterns, you can ty :

(ssget (list (cons 0 "TEXT") (1 . "*12.123IL")))

Hi,

Look at the wcmatch LISP function topic in the developer's help.

(ssget '((0 . "TEXT") (1 . "~*IL")))
