 I have a survey dgn file with a level that includes trees (see image #1). I have referenced this survey file into another dgn file that has a closed shape of my tree removal limits (see image #2).

Although the following Wiki article is from the Building forum it is still valid.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The following tool is from LA Solutions and&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="/members/de0601d9_2d00_ca2e_2d00_4005_2d00_a7b3_2d00_982abaee9aeb"&gt;Jon Summers&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;and is quite good.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Try the following:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Create a fence from the closed shape using the&amp;nbsp;Place Fence tool with these settings:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Fence Type: Element&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Fence Mode: Inside&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Key-in &lt;strong&gt;Fence Selection New&lt;/strong&gt; to select all elements inside the fence.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;The number of selected elements will be displayed in the Selection Set area of the status bar.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Regards,&lt;br /&gt;Ron&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
