SYNOPSIS

C:

DESCRIPTION

DoPickID returns a pick identifier organizational object.  The argument pickid determines the pick identification for subsequent objects.  A pick identification is an arbitrary 32-bit value that is used to identify various parts of the Dor´

  database. It is similar to a nameset in its ability to identify or give special meaning to parts of the database.

The pick identifications are part of the information returned in a pick.  They are returned for the picked primitives as well as for their ancestors in the hierarchy. 

DEFAULTS

The default DoPickID is 0.
