how to get the 'current selected' msagl.Drawing.node

Question

Hi,

I'm trying to get the 'currently marked' node (that one with the bounding box on) to work with its UserData after the user clicked any.
I've already tried the SelectionChanged - Event, similar to the 'WindowsApp-Demo'. But it fires, while the mouse is only hovering over a node (or edge), and I don't no to distinguish all wrong nodes from the one *marked*. Any help?

Many thanks in advance

Hi Olaf,
Are you trying to get the clicked on node?

Hi Lev,
thank you for your attention.
Yes, you are right, and I managed it in the meantime using the MouseClick - Event and checking if the type of viewer.SelectedObject is edge. But there can be more than one node selected by holding shift or ctrl. There isn't a set of those nodes that I can enumerate, somewhat like "viewer.SelectedObjects" isn't it?
Thanks

Hi Olaf,
You can get these entites the following way
 foreach (var en in gviewer.Entities)
                if (en.MarkedForDragging && en is IViewerNode)
                { //got a selected node}

Thanks,
Lev
