Hello!
I often have an import from PCB-DWG-Files and must seperate objects to differant layers. What i urgent need is to select objects by color or circles by diameter.
Can you program a new selection filter?

Best regards
Jörg

Hello Jorg

Under the drop down menu window is the selection mask tool. If allows selection of colors and types of objects.

Hello Jason,
I don`t found the selection tool. My language from VIACAD is in german.
In the second drop down menue "edit" is: select all; deselect all, select objects connected together

Can you give me some more information, where I can found this selection tool?


Thanks in advanced

Jörg

In V9 heißt das Fenster / Auswahlmaske ... die V10 habe ich in englisch, wird in der deutschen Version ähnlich heißen.

>>What i urgent need is to select objects by color or circles

Select Mask as mentioned will support color,layer,type.

>>by diameter.

For same shape selects you would need the Select Same : Shape option in PowerPack.

Hello Tim, Jason,
I found your advices and this helps me now in saving me a lot time.

Thanks



A second question for another problem:
After placing text, some letters who have closed lines or arcs, they are filled out?
As a sample, the "o" is displayed as a filled circle.
My version of viacad 10 pro is release 1341.

Have you a solution for this?

Thanks in advanced

Jörg
