SelectionEvent in Sketch Environment

Hello together,


I want to make a special selection Filter for Edges.
For this I took the SDK-Example 'Basic Selection Using Interaction Events', which works on faces. The selection works when I open a new sketch. When I'm editing an existing sketch, it doesn't work. How can I use selection filters inside the sketch envirenment to select edges and faces when I'am editing an existing sketch?

 

I'am using Inventor Build: 227, 2018.2.3.

 

Best Regards
Wolfgang

Hello Chandra,
attached you will find a IPT, the Classmodul and the Basic Sub.
When you open the IPT and edit Sketch 'Skizze3' and start TestSelection it works.
If you make a new Sketch it also works. But if you edit Sketch 'Skizze2' it doesn't work.
I know the Face selection makes no sence but I have made a Window selection to select edge.
Because the code is complex I showed it with the example of VBA doc.

Best Regards
Wolfgang

Hello @wolfgang_nickl,

 

Selection of face works in last sketch of a document (Sketch above the "End of Part"). Selection of face is disabled in other sketches. This is limitation of Inventor. You can log this wish list at idea station using below link.
