Hello,

Do you know how to filter by atttribute value in a script file?. I would only import features of a specific type.

Thanks

    While there is not a way to only import particular types, you can use the filter settings on the Vector Display tab of the Configuration dialog to turn off the display of certain types.

    To filter by attribute from a script, you could first setup type filters with some type set to off, then using the new v10.02 release and the new ASSIGN_TYPE command, you could find the attributes that you don't want and classify those features as a type that you have disabled for display.

    Let me know if I can be of further assistance.

    Thanks,
