Post From: possible bugs? 2 things - sc.GetLineNumberOfSelectedUserDrawnDrawing - @ usetool issue

So, I have modified my code to Always receive pointer events. Based on the entries in the message log, I am able to capture Pointer button Down, and correctly LineNum = 0 as long as the pointer is not over a drawn object. If I click on an object, my code never executes. I am not able to get the "Selected" user drawn object.

if (sc.PointerEventType == SC_POINTER_BUTTON_DOWN)
  {
    JOR_MessageText.Format("JOR Pointer Down Event ");
    sc.AddMessageToLog(JOR_MessageText, 1);
    JOR_LineNum = sc.GetLineNumberOfSelectedUserDrawnDrawing();
    JOR_MessageText.AppendFormat("Selected PitchFork >>> %i ", JOR_LineNum);
    sc.AddMessageToLog(JOR_MessageText, 1);
    return;
  }

I still can not get sc.UseTool to move the pitchfork cut point.

To try to further narrow down if it is my issue, Instead of changing the Tool.FourthIndex, I changed Tool.BeginIndex. This was successful, but only after I included the following logic, which I found as your answer to another user a while back trying to move a tool. If the doc states to 'not' change fields you do not want modified, why is it necessary to 'Clear' these two fields. I'm just trying to better understand.
        Tool.BeginDateTime.Clear();
        Tool.EndDateTime.Clear();

There is no Clear for Tool.FourthIndex and including the 2 above lines still did not move the cut point. It seems to me, the UseTool even though it returns 1 indicating it was executed successfully, that is not the case.

Please advise.
