VBA to actually select objects on screen


Recommended Posts

Posted

I'm moderately familiar with selectionset manipulation, but for the life of me I cannot find any documentation on how to do this. Say I create a selectionset in VBA programmatically, but I don't want to manipulate the selected entities. I just want to have these objects show up as selected on the screen. I've tried sset.Highlight and then .Update, which makes the objects look like they're selected, but they're not actually part of the active selectionset. Any clue on how to do this?

Bump. Basically I want to re-create some of the functionality of the built-in Quick Select function through VBA. I need to create a selection set and then make it the "active" selection set, actually "select" the objects on the screen for the user to then manipulate him/her self. PickFirstSelectionSet is read-only, so that option is out. Is this possible?
