Hyperview 2023.1 api to select the component and use fit selected

Ajay Prabhakaran

I found an option "Fit Selected" in HyperView 2023.1 that allows me to fit a selected component within the view. While I can access this functionality through the view handle, I'm unable to find the corresponding API in the documentation to select the component first. I've attempted various API methods for component selection without success.
Could you please assist me in identifying the correct API to select components so I can utilize this "Fit Selected" feature?

I tried the below API for Fit Selected

hwi OpenStack

hwi GetSessionHandle session_handle

session_handle GetProjectHandle

project_handleproject_handle GetPageHandle

page_handle [project_handle GetActivePage]

page_handle GetWindowHandle

window_handle [page_handle GetActiveWindow]

window_handle GetViewControlHandle view_handle

view_handle FitSelected

hwi CloseStack

But to use this api, we need to select the component first. Please share me the way to select the component so that i can use the above code to fit the selected component.

Hello @Ajay Prabhakaran

maybe this quick workflow using HWC commands helps (HWC Console » View dropdown). You can use them in TCL scripts by adding a wrapper command "hwc " (with space character at the end) at the start of the line.

You can graphically select a component and putting it into a mark, then using the mark later. Like this:

I hope this helps!
