Status of Full/Partial select toggle?

Hi,

I want to determine the status of the Full/Partial select toggle.

This code:
printf("F/P setting: %L" envGetVal( "layout" "partialSelect") )
always prints a nil. 

Am I using the correct function?  Ideas anyone?

THANKS,

John Wilwert

     Hi John,

    The envGetVal() method gets the default setting for the session, but it is also a per-window setting.

    You can get the current window partial select setting using something like the following:

      hiGetCurrentWindow()->partialSelect

     You can see other per-window settings (such as x and y snap spacing) using hiGetCurrentWindow()->??

    Hope this helps.

    Best regards,

    Lawrence.
