In OnDraw, use setpickingdrawfocus() before drawing a cone in order to set a custom picking value.

See MAIN:/project/library/taskexecuters/Crane>behaviour/cppfunctions/onDraw(treenode view)

Then in OnDrag, use getpickingdrawfocus() to see what is being dragged and adjust various components accordingly.

See MAIN:/project/library/taskexecuters/Crane>behaviour/cppfunctions/onDrag(treenode view)

Hi @phil.bobo

Thank you very much!I tried to use these command to have a function test , but nothing worked.Maybe i use them in a wrong way.I found commands like drawobjectpart in onDraw coden and i don't know how to understand and use.

So could you give me an application case about this issue. Any advise or excamples will be appreciated!

drawobjectpart() is a C++ function. Unless you are writing your code in C++ with access to that function, then you'll need to use something else to draw a cone, such as the drawcolumn() FlexScript function or the Mesh API.

Please post an example model showing what you've tried and what isn't working if you want more specific help in explaining what is wrong.
