Work with Object Selections
Selection nodes are modified through the Action tree to control which objects
are used for the commands in an action macro.
When modifying an action macro, you can control the selection method to
use when playing back an action macro. You can use one of the following
options to alter the behavior of how objects are selected for the selection
results node in an action macro:
■ Use Pick First. Uses the objects selected prior to the start of the action
macro.
■ Pause for User Input. Prompts for a new selection set.
■ Use Macro-Created Object Selection. Selects all the objects that have been
created since the start of the action macro.

down arrow next to the Action Macro list.

selection results node that you want to pause for user input during
playback.
