SetRegionSelected Method (GdViewer)

In This Topic
Sets the selection status of a highlighted region specified by its unique identifier related to the document currently displayed in the GdViewer control. These regions, if present, determines the currently defined highlighted regions on the displayed document.

To select a region means that the region is visibly marked on the page with the thin red border, so its selection status is set to true. You can determine the selection of each highlighted region using the GetRegionSelected method.

You can also benefit from using the RegionSelected event, respectively the PreviewRegionSelected event.

Parameters

RegionID
A unique region identifier of the specified region. You can obtain this identifier using the GetRegionID method or when creating regions using the AddRegion(String,Double,Double,Double,Double,Color,RegionFillMode) method.

Just to inform you, that you are not allowed to change the color or the border of the selection tool.

Example
How to make visible and select the first region after the successful search.
