Send Escape keypress to Inventor in iLogic rule

[checkcheck_master]

I would like to know how to give an 'Escape' sendkey in an iLogic Rule.

I've searched quite a bit but can't find anything that works.

I'm selecting the TopNode in a rule and then 

Call ThisApplication.CommandManager.ControlDefinitions.Item("AppFindInBrowserCtxCmd").Execute

When the rule is done I would like to deselect the TopNode by sending an Escape key.

Hello

Try to use code below. You don't need to select the topnode before run. The "AppFindInBrowserCtxCmd" would select the browsernode corresponding to the selected object in graphic window.

ThisDoc.Document.BrowserPanes.ActivePane.TopNode.DoSelect
ThisApplication.CommandManager.ControlDefinitions.Item("AppZoomSelectCmd").Execute
ThisDoc.Document.SelectSet.Clear

Works like a charm Krieg, thanks again!

ThisDoc.Document.BrowserPanes.ActivePane.TopNode.DoSelect
ThisApplication.CommandManager.ControlDefinitions.Item("AppFindInBrowserCtxCmd").Execute
ThisDoc.Document.SelectSet.Clear

May I ask you to look at one of my posts, you may not have seen it.
In short:

Is it possible to have a rule that runs in the background and performs an action when the user holds down the left mouse button for an extended period of time, say 500 milliseconds.
Assuming and as far as I can determine that such a longer left mouse click has no other function within Inventor.
