Actually I got a huge zone of SCTN's which are vertical, horizontal and some bracings.
But I want to generate a drawing with only vertical members.
Then again the problem is these SCTN's get added & deleted frequently.
the easiest method I am using till now using some rules and updating drawlist manually each time.
ADD ALL SCTN WITH ( NAME OF ZONE EQ '/01_STEEL_TIER1') AND ( COMP U OF POSSTA NE COMP U OF POSEND) AND ( COMP E OF POSSTA EQ COMP E OF POSEND) AND ( COMP S OF POSSTA EQ COMP S OF POSEND)
But is there any much more direct method so that whenever I click graphics update it would automatically update my drawlist according to my rules?
If your hierarchy is set up correctly you only need to have the STRU/FRMW etc where the columns (Vertical) sections are stored in your drawlist and any changes will automatically be reflected in the drawing.
Well that's the problem here, my steel hierarchy is ain't setup like that.....
Then the easy option is to sort out your hierarchy into a logical system for your Draft needs.
Half the secret to using Draft successfully is the way that the design is set up. It should be fairly straightforward, even on a big zone to list and move the memebrs into a more logical hierarchy.

Well that can't be done too. Because it's in readonly db.
Anyway I found the solution. With the help of local rules I can get this.

I got the solution.
With the help of Criteria attrib of ADDE or REME element we can create dynamic drawlist
