Topic: Select BYPolygon

[csgoh]

What does it mean by the enum in the mode "AcSelect enum; input only" for the method selectbypolygon as listed in the Help files?

Using an integer 2 for mode seems to be ok but not other numbers?

Thank you.

The 2 is for acSelectionSetFence. Using the ObjectBrowser in the VBAIDE you can find that to call acSelectionSetWindowPolygon you would need to either supply that konstant OR the Integer 6.
