Include "OR" condition in selection set

[ajs]

Elementary question here I'm sure:

 

Can anyone help me with the syntax to add an "or" condition to a selection set?

 

 

I want to have the following selection set select by lines or arcs (both on OUTCUT layer) as opposed to just lines.

 

 

(setq ERASE_LINE(ssget "_X" '((0 . "LINE")(8 . "OUTCUT"))))

 

 

Thanks very much.

Hey ajs

 

Just to get you started off

 

(setq ERASE_LINE(ssget "_X" '((0 . "LINE,ARC")(8 . "OUTCUT"))))

 

The comma allows selection of both the lines and arcs

Greatly appreciated---Thanks

Your welcome AJS,

 

Glad to help!

 

See the attached links for a few more ways of achieving the same result using selection set filters. I am sure there are a few more good links on this site as well

Just for completeness, if you really wanted to use the "OR":

 

(ssget "_X" '((8 . "OUTCUT") (-4 . "<OR") (0 . "LINE") (0 . "ARC") (-4 . "OR>")))
