change Revit application setting?

[zhuliyi0]

Can I change application settings programably?

Specifically, I want to change the settings at the lower right corner of UI:

I tried looking for something in API doc, couldn't find any. I might
missed it somewhere in it?

Hey,

I tested what @naveen.kumar.t  provided you. It is working. Just one detail to mention is that the icons are not updated after modify the properties... until you click one of them from the UI. Then they are updated.

SelectionUIOptions selectionUIOptions = SelectionUIOptions.GetSelectionUIOptions();
selectionUIOptions.SelectLinks = false;
selectionUIOptions.SelectUnderlay = false;
selectionUIOptions.SelectFaces = false;
selectionUIOptions.SelectPinned = false;
selectionUIOptions.DragOnSelection = false;

This is the result after run this code, everything is locked but icons haven't changed.

If I click one of them, it changes and the rest are updated.

Kind regards.
