NAME

endselect - turn selecting mode off

SYNOPSIS

C
long endselect(buffer)
long buffer[];

FORTRAN
integer function endsel(buffer)
integer buffer(∗)

Pascal
function endselect(var buffer: Ibuffer): integer;

DESCRIPTION

Endselect terminates selecting mode.  The names of objects that intersect the selection window are reported to the user in buffer; the number of names is returned as the function value.  The names are triples, containing an object name, a tag, and a command offset from the tag.  Thus, buffer reports commands that intersect the selecting window up to a maximum number determined by the previous call to select.  In addition to the name of the command that intersects the selection window, the IRIS provides a code that indicates which clipping planes intersect the command.  The hitcode is a six-bit number, with one bit for each clipping plane.  In selection mode, as each command is interpreted, the resulting hitbits are logically ORed into the system-wide hitcode to keep a running summary of which planes have been clipped against.

NOTE

This command can only be used in immediate mode.
