Hi,

To get selection, how to set selection filter, like as following ?

vcApp2.setProperty(“CurrentSelection”, “Feature”)

Dim Sel As vcCOM.IvcSelection
Sel = vcApp2.findSelection(“Feature”)

IvcApplication.setProperty(“CurrentSelectionGroup”, <Types>)

Types:

  • DefaultGroup
  • NodeGroup
  • FeatureGroup
  • GeometryGroup
  • RslGroup

Thanks,

I’m confuse your idea. I’d like to do on the 64bit version.

IApplication of 64 bit version dose not have the method of ‘setProperty’. Could you please check it ?

Oh, misunderstood, because your snippet code is using IvcSelection.

I thought you’re trying to do this in current gen… :smiley:

I guess need to use ISelectionHandler.

Selection logic is slightly different.

Not sure how to do it.

 

I think there is no selection filter in next generation.

But it’s possible to do that.

When selecting feature type, click component filter button, force ISelectionManager unselect feature, select component.

Thanks, I think too. So I should enjoy to fiddle around with ISelectionHandler. : )

You can do something like this:

var app = IoC.Get<IApplication>();

Then, using the Selection Manager you can get what you want. For example, selected feature would be:

var feat = app.SelectionManager.GetSelected<IFeature>();

or selected component would be:

var comp = app.SelectionManager.GetSelected<ISimComponent>();

And there are more useful methods in ISelectionManager.
