Do selection from iLogic

By Adam Nagy

The only way you can do a selection from iLogic is using the Pick function. However, you can keep calling that in a loop to enable the user to select multiple components as well. Then you can do something with the selected components - in this specific case, we'll delete them:

Dim comps As ObjectCollection
Dim comp As Object

comps = ThisApplication.TransientObjects.CreateObjectCollection

While True
	comp = ThisApplication.CommandManager.Pick(
		SelectionFilterEnum.kAssemblyOccurrenceFilter, 
		"Select a component") 
		
	' If nothing gets selected then we're done	
	If IsNothing(comp) Then Exit While
	
	comps.Add(comp) 
End While

' If there are selected components we can do something
For Each comp In comps
	comp.Delete()
Next
