[Andrea]

Hi all,..

is anyone know if there is a variable doing always crossing selection how matter the way user select object ?

As far as variable, I don't think so.

How are you selecting objects? You can use the crossing window selection mode of SSGET

[Andrea]

Code: [Select]

(setq p1 (getpoint))
      (while (and
               (setq p2 (cadr (setq ff (grread t 4 4))))
               (listp p2)
               (/= (car ff) 3)
               )
(setq _*BlocksSelected (ssget "_C" (list (car p1)(cadr p1))
                                   (list (car p2)(cadr p2))
                              (list
      '(0 . "insert")
      (cons 2 _*BlockName)
      )
       ))

)

need to filter also specific block

@Andrea: Why don't you use (getcorner ...)?

If the block doesn't have any objects that actually cross the point specified, then it wont' be selected.

What about selecting blocks within the current view, step through the selection set, and take the matching block?
