Description

Handle the selectedObjectChanged message if you want to perform some action when an object is selected.

When an object is selected, the selectedObjectChanged message is sent to the newly selected object.

When an object is deselected and no other object is selected--for example, when the user clicks the card or chooses the Browse tool--the selectedObjectChanged message is sent to the object being deselected.
