Tutorial 8C.1 -Cycle Through a Selection Set by Individual Object

No matter how a Selection Set is Collected, and whether it is Saved or not, one can Cycle through the Set by Individual Object using the Properties Palette.

Step 1.

Open the "Selection Set" Form on the HydrauliCAD Palette.

Step 2.

If you wish to cycle a Saved Temporary or Permanent Selection Set > Select it from within the Selection Set Form using the appropriate "Select this Set" Button.

Or, you can cycle a new unsaved set collected by any method, including manually in the drawing, or through the Result of any Queries.

Once ANY Set is selected in the drawing,
> Click on the
"Copy Selected Elements to Cycle" Button.

(This holds the Selection in Cycle Mode. It will continue to be held there throughout the Session until another Set replaces it in Cycle, or Trace Mode).

Step 3.

Open AutoCAD Properties Palette

The Top Window / ComboBox shows the Total # of Objects in the Set.

 

The Drop Down ComboBox shows the # of each Object Type in the set.

Step 4. (Cycling Through a Set)

To Cycle through the Set, > Click on Main ToolBar Cycle Icon .

This will place the first Object in the AutoCAD Properties Palette and display ALL of its Properties to View and / or Edit (or, in the case of Error Objects, to make corrections to missing or faulty Properties)

Continue to click this Icon to cycle through the Set.

To back up, Click the Main ToolBar Icon.
