Erase all Non-Selectable Objects

Don't have any of my posts from the old AutoCAD forum, but I do have a note in
my KILLDOTS.lsp routine that thanks Steve for the hint. Have no idea where he
learned it... maybe from Duff Kurland.

 

Thanks Tony. Didn't know about that one.

 

<clip>
((= obj "TEXT")
(setq bad (wcmatch (cdr (assoc 1 ent)) " ")) ; thanks to Steve Johnson
)
<clip>

Yes, but this "kills" only TEXT with only space (" " " " ...)
not null Texts ("").

The filter "\\A1" in the versions >13? (verified in 14, 15, 16)
it would not have to serve anymore, rather, in >15? it is not more
possible to make void the text of a dimension if not putting at least
a space in the text and:

- if the text has only a space the dimension text disappears
exploding the dimension

- if the text has two or more spaces then it is transformed in empty
text exploding the dimension


then:

(setq ss1 (ssget "_X" '((0 . "TEXT,MTEXT") (1 . " ,,\\A1; "))))

is enough.

Tony,
On a totally unrelated branch, several months ago I started using you ACADXTABS for R2002 (Win2000) and found it extremely handy. The only thing is that it kills 3DORBIT. IF ACADXTABS is running and you try and execute 3DORBIT, it'll bomb the session with any kind of warning. Any clue to the cause, something I need to check?
