Exploding symbols

Is there a batch way to explode multiple, selected symbols on a drawing? I know how to right click on an unexploded symbol and then work through the Symbols Tools menu to explode "that" symbol but I just placed about 20 symbols on a drawing that were unexploded that I now find I want exploded. Must be a bulk way of doing this exploding but I don't see it.

Got to the Explode function under 3D Menus, select Sym Explode and you can select your Symbols using the standard EGAF menu.

OK, thanks, Dave. I see you ran out of space in the fridge and had to use the freezer to put that command. Tricky, tricky.

Hi David,

There is a code to make it easier to write a shortcut to this. Here's mine:

Code: Select allQ^105#^S3^F1
//3D Symbol Explode


Replace Q with the Alt- letter of your choice.
