    Hello all,

    I'm wondering if it's possible to select all objects of a given property or
    properties (in this case, linetype), without user input. I want to create a
    one-click solution for people who don't use Autocad very much and might have
    to constantly be re-schooled in using Quickselect or filters. I was hoping
    to do this via a macro (since I can mostly accomplish that) instead of LISP,
    but I doubt that'll happen. I appreciate your input.

    Thanks
    Patrick

    Check (ssget "X" '(FilterList)), details see AutoCAD's help...

    Cheers

    Do I have this formatted correctly? I'm getting a "bad point argument" when
    I run it.

    (defun c:hlines ()
    (setq ss1 (ssget "X" '(6 . "HIDDEN"))))

    Thanks
