Can't select Joints/Joint Origins

For a SelectionCommandInput, I have them set to filter only Joints.

I then want to save the selection data as I want to essentially go between different selection sets, so I store the entities in a joints array as shown here so I can then reselect them later if the user goes back to a previous state.

However, when I try and reselect these joints (or jointOrigins), it doesnt seem to select them properly.

Is there any way in the API currently to select Joints or JointOrigins automatically without user input? I've tried multiple different methods including using assemblyContext methods and haven't found anything in the forums.


My current solution would be to use custom point graphics overlaid over joints and then select and deselect those instead, but if there's an easier way, I'm all ears!

Unfortunately, this is an issue with the API and it handles joints.  It's something that the development team needs to address and I'm not aware of any workarounds.

Thanks for the update! Overlaying custom point graphics seems to be working for now from my testing yesterday.
