Visio 2003 Undo ScopeIds

[Andy]

Does anyone know if the scope ids are defined anywhere. I am catching
a selection change event, but need to determine if this selection was
created via an Area Select. I can find the scopeId is 1210 for Area
Select, but was hoping for a constant or enum to use rather than hard
coding a value.

Hi Andy,

Usually you can look in the enumeration: VisUICmds for stuff like this.

For instance:

VisUICmd.visCmdDeselectAll = 1213

will jive with the Visio SDK's "Event Monitor Tool" reports when you
deselect all:

11814 >EnterScope Deselect All [1213;0;Deselect All;397222]
11815 | SelectionChanged window[2] Drawing1 Page-1 subtype is 128
[/hwnd=397222]
11816 <ExitScope Deselect All [1213;0;Deselect All;397222]

But I am not finding a constant defined for 1210, although it appears to
report as "1210" every time you net-select shapes.

Yes thanks, I had used the event monitor to get the value. Just was
hpoing not to hard code it as sometimes these things seem to change
between different versions.
