Count

Description

Counts all of the objects which match the search criteria.

FUNCTION Count(c : CRITERIA): LONGINT;

def vs.Count(c):
    return LONGINT

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
c	CRITERIA	Search criteria.

Remarks

Undocumented is that criteria also accept the object type flag as parameter. The example above can also be written:

CountValue := Count((FP=4)and(T=3)); { 3 is object type flag for 'Rectangle&amp' }

This is valid for all object types being assigned a name in the Script Appendix.

Examples

VectorScript

CountValue := Count((FP=4)and(T='Rect'));
{counts all rectangles with a fillpat index of 4}

Python

CountValue = vs.Count("(FP=4)AND(T='Rect')")
# counts all rectangles with a fillpat index of 4
