Hi all. I'm interested in how to get to the method of these commands in VBA. Thanks for any help

where is this original command found:
Part
Assembly

[anton_voitin]

This is clear to me. I want to use this command in my macro. how can I apply it in VBA code? Is it possible to show an example?

[bradeneuropeArthur]

Yes I know.

But I need to know where the original command is located, then I can help your further!

FYI:  I believe that is one of the selection methods.

The online help for this can be found under the "Select Command Reference" topic.

There is usually a selection filter type drop-down in the Quick Access toolbar with something in its list labeled "Select Component Offset...".  I'm not familiar with it either.

[anton_voitin]

Yes, this is the same method. Everything I found in the selection priorities. But I don’t see anything suitable or am I missing something?

It is an internal Command: AssemblyEnhSelComponentBBCmd

The Spherical Select is: AssemblyEnhSelSphereCmd

Both require user action.

Don't know if it's possible to program any input.

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

Thank you very much. I tried searching among the commands but couldn't find it. And now you rubbed my nose in) Now I’ll try to work with this, thank you very much.

Use EventWatcher from the SDK.
