    Hello

    If I click on an Polygon manualy in the Map the Polgyon is selected.

    In the Map I then see little Blue Quarters (Filled Blue Boxes) on every Node
    of the Polygon.

    I like to select a Polygon via Code and then it should also have these
    little Boxes.

    If I do that via the Selectionset the Polygon is only Highlighted but I it
    don't shows the Boxes.

    Any Ideas hwo to make the Boxes Visible via Code too ?

    Here is my Codepart how I do it at this time:

    Dim ssT As AcadSelectionSet
    ssT.Select(AcSelect.acSelectionSetWindow, corner1, corner2, FilterType,
    FilterData)
    ssT.Highlight(True)
    ssT.Update()

    Thanx
    Jerry

    Jerry,

    Grips (the blue boxes, sometimes red) is a topic that has been discussed in other theads. Take a look at Tony's answer on this thread..http://discussion.autodesk.com/thread.jspa?messageID=424135

    Search this group for the word "Grips" and you'll find other reading.

    Good luck,

    Paul,

    Happy Easter to you and all others also. Things are still MyWorkLoad.StillTooHeavy(True). Thought I'd answer some questions before heading out.

    Regards,
    Bob

  5. Activating grips on an object when AutoCAD is not
    quiescent is to the best of my knowledge, not possible
    in VB or ActiveX. Last time I checked, there was an
    undocumented ObjectARX function whose name suggested
    that it does that (acedSetHotGrips or something), but it
    was not implemented. That may have changed in R16.x,
    but I've not investigated it.
