Method Detail

The auxiliary selection anchor.

Remarks

The AuxiliarySelectionAnchor is a second selection anchor that can be used in tandem with the Editor's SelectionAnchor. The AuxiliarySelectionAnchor is represented as a small '+' sign on the display.

In some cases you may want to rotate features around the Editor's selection anchor and snap them to other feature geometries. Like the SelectionAnchor, the AuxiliarySelectionAnchor honors any active snap agents.
