Selection Property (CaptureInputs)

C#
Visual Basic
Objective-C
Java
C++

public int Selection {get; set;}

'Declaration

Public Property Selection As Integer

'Usage

Dim instance As CaptureInputs
Dim value As Integer
 
instance.Selection = value
 
value = instance.Selection

public:
property int Selection {
   int get();
   void set (    int value);
}

Property Value

The zero-based index of the selected item; or -1 if no item is selected.

If this property is -1, then check the number of capture inputs in the Count Property. If the Count property is non-zero then the Video and Audio inputs do not match. This is only a warning and not an error. The inputs can be left the way they are.

For more information on unmatched pairs of video and audio inputs, refer to CaptureInputs Object.

Assignment can raise an error exception. For more information, refer to the Error Codes.
