Accessing the Selection

The Selection object is available from the XSIApplication object via the XSIApplication.Selection property:

    // C++ API
    Selection sel( Application.GetSelection() );

    // C#
    CXSIApplication app = new CXSIApplication();
    Selection sel = app.Selection;

| For JScript and VBScript, the XSIApplication object is implicit (meaning it doesn’t need to be specified). For Python and Perl, you must use it explicitly:

    // JScript -- these versions are both valid
    var sel = Selection;
    var sel = Application.Selection;

    ' VBScript -- these versions are both valid
    set sel = Selection
    set sel = Application.Selection

    # Python -- only this syntax may be used
    sel = Application.Selection

    # Perl -- only this syntax may be used
    my $sel = $Application->Selection;
