API Graphical Selection in C#

Hi,

I've been using RobotStudio for a while, and I'm trying to use the API to eliminate some of the more repetitive tasks I perform.  I'm familiar with C#, but I'm having trouble when it comes to selecting objects with the mouse from the graphics window. 

I would like to be able to select a curve and a surface from an existing station.  I've tried attaching event handlers to the Selection.SelectedObjects.ObjectectAdded and ObjectRemoved events, but I haven't yet been able to find any wire bodies or faces in Selection.SelectedObjects.

Is there any example code that shows how to do something like this using the API?  What types of objects are found in the Selection.SelectedObjects collection?  Is there a better way to get mouse selections from the graphics window?

Regards,
Dan
