Issues with AIS_InteractiveContext SetSelectionMode()

[e3dEF]

Hello, I'm using the OCCViewer.Viewer3d to display shapes and get feedback from the user by clicking them. For example, I can successfully change the color of a shape after it was selected in the viewer.

clr = Quantity_Color.Name(1.0, 0, 0)
display.Context.SetColor(ais, clr)

Now I wanted to allow to select e.g. only edges of a shape. So I tried display.Context.SetSelectionMode(ais, TopAbs_EDGE) But it has no effect. I don't want to use, display.SetSelectionModeShape() which works, but is applied on all shapes and additionally closes the context, so that I lose all links the shapes. How can I change only selection mode of a single shape?

The local context is not supported anymore. Please refer to the occt documentation for more information.

I had the same problem, and that's how I solved it: simply add "self.Context.Deactivate()" before activate the context, refer to: https://dev.opencascade.org/content/local-context-removal ` def SetSelectionMode(self, mode=None): self.Context.Deactivate() topo_level = next(modes) if mode is None: self.Context.Activate(AIS_Shape_SelectionMode(topo_level), True) else: self.Context.Activate(AIS_Shape_SelectionMode(mode), True) self.Context.UpdateSelected(True)

`
