Creating a block with a lot of paramters

[Jooky68]

In autolisp, is there a way when creating a block to use a list instead of listing all the objects to select for the block. For instance right now I have

(command "block" yes "0,0" pt1 pt2 pt3 pt4 pt5 ... pt20 "")

Is there a way that I can make a list and just put it in there as the objects to select. I tried the append statment and it didnt work. This is the append statment that I used

1st: (setq bracing (list (entlast)))
and than all the following i have

(setq bracing (append bracing (list (entlast))))


But it doesnt work. Does anyone PLEASE have an answer to this? Thank you in advance for any responses

How about using SSGET?

Am I able to add to my selection in later commands with ssget?

As long you define your variable as global!

I got it working, couldnt get it working wtih ssget though. The way that I did it was created my selection set

(setq sel-set (entsel (entlast))

than after the other entities were drawn i would do this

(setq sel-set (ssadd (entlast) sel-set))


and that did what I needed. Just in case anyone was interested.
