how to get selected objects from selection box
hello,
i have set up a selection box in my own property page. when i select
something in an assembly it apears in the selectionbox.
normaly i get the selected objects with getselectedobject6 method and
i can use getselectedobjecttype to identify the object.
getselectedobject6 gets something but i can not identify the
object. i always get a 0 which means nothing is selected.
i use this in my addin. when i use the getselectedobject6 methode
and the identify methode without a propertymanagerpage in
a standalone exe it works but not in my addin.
can someone help me to get the selected objects?
hi,
use this to set up the selection box:
'selection1
controltype = swpropertymanagerpagecontroltype_e.swcontroltype_selectionbox
leftalign = swpropertymanagerpagecontrolleftalign_e.swcontrolalign_leftedge
options = swaddcontroloptions_e.swcontroloptions_enabled + swaddcontroloptions_e.swcontroloptions_visible
selection1 = group2.addcontrol(selection1id, controltype, "name", leftalign, options, "description")
if not selection1 is nothing then
dim filter() as integer = new integer() {swselecttype_e.swselcomponents}
selection1.height = 30
selection1.singleentityonly = true
selection1.setselectionfilters(filter)
selection1.mark = 1
end if
then get the selection in the routine called by the handler:
dim theselection as component2 = selmgr.getselectedobject6(1, selection1.mark)

sounds good.
i will try it thanks.
at time i have a problem with onclose handler from the selectionbox.
onclose i call a sub modul. last action in this modul which is done is to insert a flatpattern and then programm returns to onclose. after end sub onclose solidworks crashes with an error.
is there somewhere a log file for solidworks crashes?
