Issues with AIS_InteractiveContext SetSelectionMode()

[e3dEF]

Hello,
I'm using the OCCViewer.Viewer3d to display shapes and get feedback from the user by clicking them.
For example, I can successfully change the color of a shape after it was selected in the viewer.

clr = Quantity_Color.Name(1.0, 0, 0)
display.Context.SetColor(ais, clr)

Now I wanted to allow to select e.g. only edges of a shape. So I tried
display.Context.SetSelectionMode(ais, TopAbs_EDGE)
But it has no effect. I don't want to use,
display.SetSelectionModeShape()
which works, but is applied on all shapes and additionally closes the context, so that I lose all links the shapes. How can I change only selection mode of a single shape?

@e3dEF I don't know.

The local context is not supported anymore. Please refer to the occt documentation for more information.

I had the same problem, and that's how I solved it: simply add "self.Context.Deactivate()" before activate the context, refer to: https://dev.opencascade.org/content/local-context-removal
`
def SetSelectionMode(self, mode=None):
self.Context.Deactivate()
topo_level = next(modes)
if mode is None:
self.Context.Activate(AIS_Shape_SelectionMode(topo_level), True)
else:
self.Context.Activate(AIS_Shape_SelectionMode(mode), True)
self.Context.UpdateSelected(True)
