Reselect Items

Hi all, is it possible in skill to create a reselect tool, that would reselect any preselected number of objects in the event of deselecting by mistake? For instance, when doing complex stretches that involve carefully selecting only certain objects, it can be quite cumbersome when one looses the selection and has to go to the trouble of reselecting everything again. Thanks,

Brian.

    Andrew/Derek,

     

    One quick question. The above code uses the objects db number to store the selected object. This however changes regularly when editing the layout, leading to stored sets no longer being valid. Is there any way around this, maybe to lock the db number to the object to stop the change, or any other means of storing objects?

     

    Thanks,

    Brian.
