Hello,

The FILTER command in AutoCAD is very addicitive and extremely popular with many users.

This has been available to Bricscad users as well as part of the FREEWARE (AutoCAD 2 Bricscad transition tools) routines in our GeoTools software.

We have now gone a step ahead and released the entire Lisp & DCL source code of the FILTER command for anyone wanting to just use it as a standalone Lisp or to modify and enhance it further. if you enhance it further and think that this is a good thing to share, please post your enhancements, comments on this forum for others to know and for me to implement the same in our core GeoTools software.

You can download it from here: http://www.4d-technologies.com/blog_images/filter.zip

For those of you who are new to FILTER, this is a command which provides the familiar AutoCAD FILTER command for object sedlection, in Bricscad. With FILTER, you can build your own powerful filter criteria using object properties, along with combinations thereof using AND, OR or NOT logical operators as well. The FILTER command complements the QSELECT command of Bricscad or the GT_MAKESEL command of GeoTools, all of which are used to perform powerful, query based object filtering.
