General Object Tools
The following topics describe commands that are common for most object types.
The General Panel
The General panel on each object’s contextual tabs contains commands that
are common for most object types.
Selecting Similar Objects
You can select all objects in a drawing that have the same object type, style,
and layer as one or more preselected objects. If the objects selected are of
different types, the selection is based on shared properties.
For example, you can select all walls in the drawing that use the CMU-Rigid
style and are placed on the A-Walls layer.
NOTE Block references are selected based on their layer and block definition.
Style-based objects are selected on their style.
1 Select the object on which to base the preselection criteria.
2 Click <Object> tab ➤ General panel ➤ Select Similar .
All objects that match the type, style, and layer of the object are
added to the selection set. You can now make changes to the
selection set, for example on the Properties palette.
