Issue: How can I select a point when trying to do a chop with SKILL code.

I am working on a Skill program that performs operations like resizing, merging, and chopping shapes in a layout. The problem arises with the Chop function. In this function I have to select a point in the layout, but If I want to do it automatically using  geSelectPoint(cv~>cellView list(0 0)) mouseAddPt(t) does not work.

    Are you using leChopShape()? If so, why do you need to interactively set a point like this? I can only assume you're trying to use the interactive version leHiChop, which doesn't really make sense if you're writing a SKILL program.
