The sample code in the Simple tutorial need updating.

The compile message made it easy enough to figure this out, but just to make it easier on the next person:

 

Tutorial Part I - Simple has this example after you remove the default script code and modify it.

 

Line 4:

Rectangle selection = EnvironmentParameters.GetSelection(src.Bounds).GetBoundsInt();

 

When you build you get a warning this is obsolete and no longer needed, use GetSelectionAsPdnRegion

So it should be changed to this I think:

Rectangle selection = EnvironmentParameters.GetSelectionAsPdnRegion().GetBoundsInt();

 

In case the next person reading is new to C# / programming it might confuse them.

If you just want the bounding Rectangle, and don't need the PdnRegion:

Rectangle selection = EnvironmentParameters.SelectionBounds;

This is why as soon as I go back to work I may donate and request the old docs be updated. Even thought its a pain, otherwise new people learn it wrong, and if they don't come find someone to inform them, it stays wrong.

 

Thank you,
