        Please let me know your suggestions

Thanks in Advance

This is a simple request and I am sure there is multiple code out there, in a nutshell using lisp ssget "WP" ie get all objects inside a pline. Then just loop through them all and get their lengths.

Have a look also at www.lee-mac.com

Search also for "total length" here and at cadtutor as well.

This an example pointing you in the right direction.

Code: [Select]

Dear BIGAl,

Thanks for the reply.

The WP Command not working Properly. When I run the WP it Selecting only inside the Polygon. Not Within the Polygon.

Means Suppose a Polyline touched the boundary polygon. The WP Command not Selecting the polygon.

is there any other way to select Objects Within the Polygon?

Manikandan

Try replace : (ssget "WP" ...
with : (ssget "CP" ....

Dear KH,

Thanks for the reply.

If we use CP it Will Select All the polyine touched inside and outside of the polygon also.

I need to select the all objects only within polygon and touched the polygon boundary from Inside. Not from the Outside.

Regards,

Manikandan

Offset the boundary and use WP.

You can use (ssget "F" pts)  using the same list of points as "WP" this will find anything that touches the pline, then add the two selection sets together.
