RE: Counting AutoCAD blocks.

 

I currently use the FILTER command to select BLOCKS I won’t to count.  The problem I have is sometimes I get two blocks on top of each other, so when I use the FILTER command to count how many blocks used in a layout I get a higher count then I won’t.   Is there a way of FILTERING this out or selecting the second block so it can be deleted?

 

Thanks in advance for your help.Big%20smile

 

Version of AutoCAD used is: 2009.

I thing, the question was if there is a way to delete (or discount) duplicit blocks that are one above each other, because the problem is that autocad counts 2 blocks that are in one place, when there should be only one.
Or am I wrong?

You can use OVERKILL from the Express Tools.
