Discussion

The graphical element selection list enables graphical elements to be cut, copied, pasted, and deleted from VDA Tools. To get a list of graphical elements associated with a given VDA Tool, use the TmEnumerateGraels function. To see which graphical elements are currently on the selection list, use TmEnumerateSelectedGraels.

If the grael_name is selected (on the selection list), no action is taken.

Example

The following commands get the names of the items associated with a VDA Tool, then add one of the items, a graphical element (rectangle), to the selected list.
