Count Objects Within a
Drawing
You can count objects

The
QSELECT command displays the Quick Select dialog box, which allows you
to create a selection set based on the filtering criteria. You can
filter selection sets by property such as color or linetype, and
by object type.

set based on the filtering criteria in the Quick Select dialog box,
allows you to count specified types of objects within a drawing.

a group of objects. Press ENTER. In the Apply To list, select Current

of object you want to count.

that belongs to the type of objects you want to count.
- In the Operator list, select = Equals.

value of the type of objects you want to count.
