70002069 Custom User selection

Summary

I would like to have selection functionality that combines getUserEntity function and getUserStartWindowSelection function: user click on entity – selection set with one entity is returned and my code continue – like in getUserEntity function user click on nothing (on empty space) – window selection starts from clicked point and selection set is returned like in getUserStartWindowSelection user right click or press Esc – cancel function

Solution

Try a code like:

            vdSelection MySelection = new vdSelection("test");
            MySelection.SetUnRegisterDocument(doc);
            doc.Selections.AddItem(MySelection);
            MySelection.RemoveAll();
            gPoint userPt = new gPoint();
            vdFigure MyFig;

            VectorDraw.Actions.StatusCode result = doc.ActionUtility.getUserEntityOneClick(out MyFig, out userPt, 
                                    vdDocument.LockLayerMethodEnum.EnableAll, true);
            if (result == VectorDraw.Actions.StatusCode.Success) // user didn't canceled
            {
                if (MyFig != null) // user clicked an object
                {
                    MessageBox.Show("clicked: " + MyFig.ToString());
                }
                else
                {
                    VectorDraw.Actions.StatusCode resWindowSelection = doc.ActionUtility.getUserStartWindowSelection(userPt, out MySelection);
                    if (resWindowSelection == VectorDraw.Actions.StatusCode.Success) // user didn't canceled 
                    {
                        MessageBox.Show("selected :" + MySelection.Count.ToString() + " objects");
                    }
                }
            }
