Latest Ruler in a layout window

Hi Andrew,

I have skill code requirement like this:

I will draw many rulers in the layout window. Is there any way to find the latest ruler which exist on the layout window?

If the ruler is a save-able object, we can undo them in a order they are drawn. But I am not able to get latest ruler in skill code.

Regards,

Venkatraman

    This code select the latest ruler I guess. I do written it but not extensively tested. Please comment.

     leHiCreateRuler()

    RulerBeforeUndo=setof(x cv~>markers x~>objType=="ruler")

    hiUndo()

    RulerAfterUndo=setof(x cv~>markers x~>objType=="ruler")

    hiRedo()

    foreach(x RulerBeforeUndo

        xyz=member(x RulerAfterUndo)

            if(xyz then

                t

            else

                geSelectFig(x)

            )

        )
