Key-in string to select elements outside of the fence

$

Hello!

I am creating batch file to perform the following on each sheet file:

1: select plot frame from the reference file ( courtesy one of the threads on this forum)

# loading selectionby for one of the selection options#

load mdl selectby

place fence fromshape;

level element select file:referencefile.dgn framelevel

#trying several options without success in order to initiate choice of the element here#

choose selection

dx=0,0

selview 1

point ab

dl=0,0

selectionby execute

none of the options above create "left-click" effect that would place fence around my selected shape ( which is a single rectangle placed on specific level for the purpose of plotting)

After selecting this shape (manually at this point) I actually need to set fence mode to "VOID", as I would like to delete everything that is selected OUTSIDE of the frame

so, I cannot find the fence mode key-in that would switch fence selection to "void"

reason for above manipulations is, that I am trying to select and delete all tag sets that were double-and triple-placed, and to leave only one that is within the plotting frame. the other method of selection ( by "selectby") would not work in this case , as these tagsets are completely identical, and I will not be able to separate them by properties.

Thank you!
