AutoCAD .Net 禁止图元被选中时高亮显示

翻译自:
Preventing AutoCAD objects from being highlighted using .NET
问题源自有人问：如何禁止 AutoCAD 中的文本对象在被选中时高亮？
我提供了一个更有弹性的解决方法，程序维护一个 AutoCAD 中的对象类型列表，该列表中的类型将在被选中时不被高亮显示。
通过类：HighlightOverrule 实现。
示例代码如下：

public class UnhightlightTestApp : IExtensionApplication
{
    static UnhighlightOverrule _ho = new UnhighlightOverrule();

    void IExtensionApplication.Initialize()
    {
        // Add our overrule
        Overrule.AddOverrule(RXObject.GetClass(typeof(Entity)), _ho, false);
        Overrule.Overruling = true;
    }

    void IExtensionApplication.Terminate()
    {
        // Remove our overrule
        Overrule.RemoveOverrule(RXObject.GetClass(typeof(Entity)), _ho);
        Overrule.Overruling = false;
    }

    [CommandMethod("UH")]
    public static void Unhighlight()
    {
        Document doc = Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument;
        Editor ed = doc.Editor;

        // Print the list of currently unhighlighted classes
        ed.WriteMessage(_ho.ListToPrint());

        // Get the type to add to the list
        PromptResult pr = ed.GetString(
            "\nEnter the type of object to stop from " +
            "being highlighted: "
          );
        if (pr.Status != PromptStatus.OK)
            return;

        if (_ho.IsInList(pr.StringResult))
        {
            ed.WriteMessage("\nItem already in the list.");
        }
        else
        {
            _ho.AddToList(pr.StringResult);
            ed.WriteMessage("\nItem added to the list.");
        }
    }

    [CommandMethod("RH")]
    public static void Rehighlight()
    {
        Document doc = Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument;
        Editor ed = doc.Editor;

        // Print the list of currently unhighlighted classes

        ed.WriteMessage(_ho.ListToPrint());

        // Get the type to remove from the list
        PromptResult pr = ed.GetString(
            "\nEnter the type of object to remove from the " +
            "list: ");
        if (pr.Status != PromptStatus.OK)
            return;

        if (!_ho.IsInList(pr.StringResult))
        {
            ed.WriteMessage("\nItem not currently in the list.");
        }
        else
        {
            _ho.RemoveFromList(pr.StringResult);
            ed.WriteMessage("\nItem removed from the list.");
        }
    }
}

class UnhighlightOverrule : HighlightOverrule
{
    // The list of types to unhighlight
    List<string> _unhighlighted = new List<string>();

    // Add a type to the list
    public void AddToList(string name)
    {
        string upper = name.ToUpper();
        if (!_unhighlighted.Contains(upper))
        {
            _unhighlighted.Add(upper);
        }
    }

    // Remove a type from the list
    public void RemoveFromList(string name)
    {
        string upper = name.ToUpper();
        if (_unhighlighted.Contains(upper))
        {
            _unhighlighted.Remove(upper);
        }
    }

    // Check whether the list contains a type
    public bool IsInList(string name)
    {
        return _unhighlighted.Contains(name.ToUpper());
    }

    // Get a string printing the contents of the list
    public string ListToPrint()
    {
        string toPrint;

        if (_unhighlighted.Count == 0)
        {
            toPrint =
              "\nThere are currently no objects in the list " +
              "to stop from being highlighted.";
        }
        else
        {
            StringBuilder sb =
              new StringBuilder(
                "\nObjects of these types will not be highlighted " +
                "during selection:"
              );
            foreach (string name in _unhighlighted)
            {
                sb.Append(" " + name);
            }
            toPrint = sb.ToString();
        }

        return toPrint;
    }

    // Called when an entity is highlighted
    public override void Highlight(
        Entity entity,
        FullSubentityPath subId,
        bool highlightAll)
    {
        // If our object's type is in the list, return
        // without calling the base implementation
        if (IsInList(entity.GetRXClass().DxfName))
            return;

        base.Highlight(entity, subId, highlightAll);
    }

    // Called when an entity is unhighlighted
    public override void Unhighlight(
        Entity entity, 
        FullSubentityPath subId, 
        bool highlightAll)
    {
        base.Unhighlight(entity, subId, highlightAll);
    }
}

你可以使用以上代码中定义的 UH 命令来禁止特定类型的对象被高亮显示。
相应地，使用 RH 命令来重新高亮显示特定类型对象。

让我们绘制一些简单的几何图元：线、圆、圆弧。
如下图所示：

当我们选中它们时，全被高亮显示。

现在我们来使用 UH 命令禁止线和圆弧被高亮显示。
Command: UH
There are currently no objects in the list to stop from being highlighted.
Enter the type of object to stop from being highlighted: line
Item added to the list.
Command: UH
Objects of these types will not be highlighted during selection: LINE
Enter the type of object to stop from being highlighted: arc
Item added to the list.
现在，当我们重新选中它们时，只有圆被高亮了。
