How to create selection set with selected objects

Hi,

I am able to create SelectionSet based on PromptSelection Result and Option (C#); After executing the command asking for object selection;

If the user was already selected some objects its not works on the selected objects;

Can you please guide on that situation ??? If the user already had selected any objects then not asking / prompt for selection ?

=================================================================

            Document doc = Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument;
            Editor ed = doc.Editor;
            string LayerName = "WINDOW";
            short LayColor = 6;
            PromptSelectionOptions pso = new PromptSelectionOptions();
            pso.MessageForAdding = "Select entities : ";
            PromptSelectionResult SelRes = ed.GetSelection(pso);
            if (SelRes.Status != PromptStatus.OK)
            {
                ed.WriteMessage("\nError in getting the selection");
                return;
            }
            SelectionSet selected = SelRes.Value;

=========================================================

Thanks and regards

Hi,

If you're defining a command, just add the CommandFlags.UsePickSet to the CommandMethod attribute arguments:

        [CommandMethod("TEST", CommandFlags.UsePickSet)]
        public void Test()
        {
            var doc = AcAp.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument;
            var db = doc.Database;
            var ed = doc.Editor;
            PromptSelectionOptions pso = new PromptSelectionOptions();
            pso.MessageForAdding = "Select entities : ";
            PromptSelectionResult psr = ed.GetSelection(pso);
            if (psr.Status != PromptStatus.OK)
            {
                ed.WriteMessage("\nError in getting the selection");
                return;
            }
            SelectionSet selected = psr.Value;
            ed.WriteMessage("\nThe selection set contains {0} entities", selected.Count);
        }
