General object model API - selectEntity not found

[hmbes-t]

Hi, I'm new to API programming and I'm working on a Python programme that will help me find the object that some method (found in samples for instance or one I intent to use) belongs to. This should be quite straightforward, but when I study 'pipe.py' it reads (leaving out some lines)

- app = adsk.core.Application.get()
- ui = app.userInterface
- sel = ui.selectEntity('Select a path to create a pipe', 'Edges,SketchCurves')

In the pdf object schematic, the thread from 'UserInterface',  there's no 'selectEntity'. though.

I guess I don't read the pdf schematic right, but I can't see why this method is nowhere to be found inside it.

Hello,

I don't know which PDF you are referring but the selectEntity method is well documented in the API documentation.

And post your future questions in the API forum.

Thanks and sorry for my mistake.
