[gme-users] Add-on : how to visually mark a node programatically

[Kevin Smyth]

Here's code to select an FCO in the Model Editor, and in the Tree Browser:

CBuilder &builder;
Project& project;
FCO& currentFCO;

project->commitOnly();

// Selects an FCO in the model editor
// GetClientByName fails if the component is invoked outside of GME
// ShowFCO fails if the FCO doesn't have a model parent
CComBSTR app("GME.Application");
CComPtr<IMgaClient> client;
ProjectPtr proj = project->getProjectI();
COMTHROW(proj->GetClientByName((BSTR)app, &client));
CComPtr<IDispatch> gui;
COMTHROW(client->get_OLEServer(&gui));
CComPtr<IGMEOLEApp> oleapp;
COMTHROW(gui.QueryInterface(&oleapp));
oleapp->ShowFCO(currentFCO->getFCOI(), VARIANT_TRUE);


// Select an FCO in the Tree Browser:
CComPtr<IGMEOLEColl> oleColl;
oleapp->get_Panels(&oleColl);
long count;
COMTHROW(oleColl->get_Count(&count));
for (long i = 1; i <= count; i++) {
	CComPtr<IDispatch> d;
	COMTHROW(oleColl->get_Item(i, &d));
	CComQIPtr<IGMEOLEPanel> panel;
	panel = d;
	CComBSTR name;
	panel->get_Name(&name);
	if (name != L"Browser") {
		continue;
	}
	CComPtr<IDispatch> browser;
	COMTHROW(panel->get_Interface(&browser));

	CComDispatchDriver driver(browser);
	DISPID dispid;
	COMTHROW(driver.GetIDOfName(L"FocusItem", &dispid));
	project->beginOnly();
	std::string id = currentFCO->getID();
	project->commitOnly();
	CComVariant vId(id.c_str());
	COMTHROW(driver.Invoke1(dispid, &vId));
}
project->beginOnly();

Hi Akos,

Thanks for your response ... is this available in the BON/BON2 packages 
... I am struggling to find the right method.

Kind regards
