Specific component selection mode

[João Victor]

Hello there, somebody would know how can I enable a specific component selection mode? Just like right-click + edge (upward).

thanks a lot.

```mel

doMenuComponentSelectionExt("pCube1", "meshComponents", 0);

doMenuComponentSelectionExt("pCube1", "edge", 0);

doMenuComponentSelectionExt("pCube1", "facet", 0);

doMenuComponentSelectionExt("pCube1", "vertex", 0);

```

Sorry for the delay! Some emails from groups are going to spam..

I tried it but I received: // Error: line 1: Cannot find procedure "doMenuComponentSelectionExt". //

Any suggestion? thanks a lot!

after my test, if you what to use it ，you must change selection mode manually first ，then you can use it，，I will find a better way to finish it，please  take a minute

import maya.cmds as cmds

import maya.mel as mel

current_model_panel = cmds.playblast(ae=True)

current_model_panel += "|" + current_model_panel.rsplit("|")[-1]

object_name = "pCube1"

cmds.setParent(current_model_panel + "ObjectPop", menu = 1)

mel.eval("""buildObjectMenuItemsNow "{model_panel}ObjectPop";""".format(model_panel = current_model_panel))

mel.eval("""dagMenuProc("{model_panel}ObjectPop", "{dag_name}");""".format(model_panel = current_model_panel, dag_name = object_name))

# mel.eval("maintainActiveChangeSelectMode pCube1 0;")  object mode

mel.eval("""source "C:/Program Files/Autodesk/Maya2020/scripts/others/dagMenuProc.mel" """)

mel.eval("""doMenuComponentSelectionExt("{dag_name}", "vertex", 0);""".format(dag_name = object_name))
