  • This command makes it possible to selectively display and work with overlay objects sharing a common attribute which can be used to filter across all objects e.g. a zone field (ZONE) present in strings, drillholes and block model objects.

Complex Filter Expressions and Scripting

You can emulate the effect of multiple-line filter expressions in scripts by joining expression parameters with "AND". For example, the following scripted command

Dm.parseCommand(“filter-objects ‘AU > 0.5 AND’ ‘M4DDESC =2’ ‘’");

Represents the following expression filter:

AU > 0.5 AND
M4DDESC = 2

Note the third parameter (empty single quotes). This is used to indicate that no further expressions will be specified.
