"_+.:E:S"

[mstb]

hello All

I have some questions.These are :

Is  (ssget "_+.:E:S") == (ssget "_:E:S")  ?

Is  (ssget "_+.:E") == (ssget "_:E")  ?

Is  (ssget "_+.:S") == (ssget "_:E:S")  ?

Thanks All.

Here is the help document from Autodesk that explained all about ssget function.

I read 2 above source

But I still have a problem with "+."

I think "+." can use (ssget "_+.:S") == (ssget "_:E:S")

And in other cases can be deleted.

Or I'm wrong!

(ssget "_+.:S")  and  (ssget "_:E:S") both simulate the entsel pickbox, but there is a small difference between them:

- :E means Everything inside the pickbox, so it's possible to select multiple objects, even if you click just once. 

- +. means only the top object is selected. The selectionset always contains only 1 object.
