CoCreate Designer code examples: Using get_selection

get_selection is one of the most powerful APIs in the Integration Kit. It can be used to perform all kinds of selections in the model. All the selection criteria which you find in the UI are available; in addition you can specify filter functions which are called during selection.

But this is advanced usage; let's start with something very simple: Using get_selection to list all names of parts in an assembly. Not very useful in itself, but you can start building your own selections from there.
