active sub assembly name
i'm trying to call a sub-assembly from within the root-assembly. the sub-assembly is active for editing. what would be the call to get the active assembly name regardless if it is the root or the sub. tried this but doesn't work.
' assembly for editing is active
assynameactive = swassy.getedittargetcomponent.name2
' i've already selected the plane within the sub assy
set itemplane = swselmgr.getselectedobject6(1, -1)
set swfeat = swmodel.createplaneatoffset3(0, false, true)
swfeat.name = "tempplane"
itemplanename = swfeat.name
itemplanenameactive = itemplanename + "@" + assynameactive
' i call back to select it. this is where it fails. itemstatusb comes back as false.
itemstatusb = swmodeldocext.selectbyid2(itemplanenameactive, "plane", 0, 0, 0, false, 0, nothing, 0)
' if i use this at the root assy then its true.
itemstatusb = swmodeldocext.selectbyid2(itemplanename, "plane", 0, 0, 0, false, 0, nothing, 0)

answer then use this
swfeat.select false
thank you ivana. that worked perfectly.

swfeat.name = "tempplane"
itemplanename = swfeat.name
' this gives me true regardless of location
itemstatusb = swfeat.select(false)
