Topic: SSGET Text Unformat

[mailmaverick]

Hi,

I want to make selection set of all Texts in Drawing Starting from Keyword kwrd .
I am using :

Code: [Select]

(ssget "_x" (list (cons 0 "*TEXT") (cons 1 (strcat kwrd "*"))))It does not select texts in which formatting codes such as /U /T etc are present in the beginning.
How to remove text formatting codes in ssget ?

Code - Auto/Visual Lisp: [Select]

1. (ssget "_x" (list '(0 . "*TEXT") (cons 1 (strcat "*" kwrd "*"))))

Thanks for prompt reply but it will select all texts containing other than formatting codes in the beginning.
For example i want that "{\\fArial Narrow|b1|i0|c0|p34;\\LD12}" must be selected but "dffDdfdf" should not be selected.

I want to select only those texts which either start from kword or start from 'formatting codes' followed directly by kword.

Maybe:

Code - Auto/Visual Lisp: [Select]

1. (ssget "_x"
2.        (list '(0 . "*TEXT") (cons 1 (strcat kwrd "*,{\\*;" kwrd "*," kwrd "*,{\\*;\\*" kwrd "*")))
3. )
