Description

RectangleNodeSelect is a selection method that selects Nodes in response to a mouse click in the graphics window when the Skeleton Selection toolbox is active and is set to “Node” mode. It selects all Nodes lying within a rectangle swept out by dragging the mouse, as shown in Figure 6.23. Click the mouse on one corner of the rectangle and drag to the opposite corner.

skeleton is the Skeleton from which the Nodes are to be selected.

points is a list of Point objects. The first and second points in the list are diagonally opposite corners of the rectangle. Any other points in the list will be ignored.

The shift and ctrl parameters govern how the current selection (i.e, the set of Nodes defined by this operation) is merged with the previous selection (the Nodes already selected) to form a new selection, as shown in Table 6.1. They indicate whether (1) or not (0) the shift and control keys were depressed during the mouse click that initiated this command.
