SelectCursDown

BIM-EDIT/XP provides an alternative method of keyboard selection which is more flexible.  See Selection for details.

 

SelectCursRight may also be entered as SelectCursR[ight] or SelCursR[ight].

 

SelectCursRight may also be invoked by pressing Shift-RightArrow.

 

SelectCursRight has no operands.

 

If SelectCursRight is invoked while select state is inactive, select state is activated with type CHAR.  The cursor character is then selected.  If SelectCursRightis invoked again, the cursor is moved to the next character and the character is selected.

 

If SelectCursRight is invoked while select state is active with type LINE, the LINE selection is converted to a GRID selection.  The selected lines intersecting with the cursor column becomes the new GRID selection.

 

If SelectCursRight is invoked while select state is active with type COLUMN, the column selection is extended to the right.

 

If SelectCursRight is invoked while select state is active with type GRID, the grid selection is extended to the right.

 

If SelectCursRight is invoked while select state is active with type CHAR, the cursor is moved to the next character position and the character is selected.

 

If SelectCursRight is invoked while the cursor is positioned on unit which is already selected, units are deselected rather than selected.

 

Return Codes
