how to clear a selection

[Joris.vd.Meulen]

So, I'm not succesful in clearing my selection. 

Reading revitapidocs UI.Selection it seems to me that

Selection.SelElementSet.Clear()  is deprecated since SelElementSet is ...

(And it isn't working for me)

So I thought:

Selection.SetElementIds()

or Selection.SetElementIds(None)

or Selection.SetElementIds(<emptylisthere>)

Nope.

So no I wonder: how to clear my selection?

Must be something simple I'm missing / doing wrong?

Hi @Joris.vd.Meulen ,

Could you please explain a bit more?

I tried using the code you mentioned and I am able to clear my selection.

Try using the below code and let me know what problem you are facing

 //1
 IList<ElementId> emptyList = new List<ElementId>();
 uidoc.Selection.SetElementIds(emptyList); 

 //2
 ElementId invalid = ElementId.InvalidElementId;
 IList<ElementId> invalidList = new List<ElementId>();
 invalidList.Add(invalid);
 uidoc.Selection.SetElementIds(invalidList);

Well, no need anymore. Your coding is exactly what I did, except mine had some stupid mistakes. Sigh. 

Thanks for your help!
