Hello, is it possible to force a selection input to stay open even when the user changes from one document to another?

Hi @Joshua.mursic -San.

 

To keep the dialog from disappearing after switching tabs in the document, it is possible to use a palette.

However, I don't think SelectionCommandInput can be used with palettes, so we need to think of another way.
The Command object has a select event, so we might be able to create something similar by using that.

I can't think of what the process of switching between documents would look like, but it might be simpler to create two splits and have them run.
