OnSelectionChanged Event

Help & Support
1

I would be happy to see an OnSelectionChanged event in the DOPus scripting api. It would be triggered for a tab when the selection is changed in it, e.g. by the user or a script. The passed parameter could contain the selection before and after the event (or the delta) and the trigger (script, user, reload).
I would already have an existing script that could benefit from this event, as well as a possible one to enable a selection history (e.g. if the selection was accidentally deleted or otherwise changed).

Cheers,
Felix

Scripts can already monitor selection changes via Dialog.WatchTab. (The script dialog does not have to be visible, so this can be a background thing if your script doesn't need to display any UI.)

It's done that way to avoid the overhead of starting and stopping the script every time the selection changes.
