Selection command question.
#1In the SELECT command dialog there is a property option, and within that there is a value item. What value does this refer to?
Select option question.
#3John,
Thanks for your response. My question is specifically about the options within the Property option that you listed. For example, by a little experimentation I determined that the Name option refers to a block name. What does the Value option refer to? For that matter, what does LOcation refer to? I may be looking in the wrong places, but I have found no documentation about these options.

From Help:
To select entities using their properties
Activate an entity-modification command.
In the prompt box, choose Select by Properties.
Choose an option for selection: Color, Layer, Linetype, Name, Thickness, Type, Value (of attributes, text, or multi-line text), Width (of polylines), or Location.
Make your selections, depending on the option you chose.
To complete the selection, press Enter.
Location allows the input of point/s say 0,0,0 and 1000,1000,0 for all items in a bounding box between these points. Or you can just specify one point and is an entity intersects the point then it will be selected.
Type means an entity type such as line, LWPolyline or arc so if you want the Circles and the Arcs just type these
TY Enter Circle Enter
Ty Enter Arc Enter.
Value is the text etc. as per help above.
