selection_set_handle ReleaseHandle

puts "Current Selection Sets: [model_handle GetSelectionSetList]"

puts "Current Selection Sets: [model_handle GetSelectionSetList]"

# How to get a selection set handle if you have duplicate set IDs
# Sometimes in a model you will have selection sets with same IDs, but the pools
# may be different. For example assume that we have 2 sets with the same ID "1", but belonging to different pools (say "Set" and "User_Set"

# Get Handle to set ID 1 belonging to set pool with label "Set"
model_handle GetSelectionSetHandle set_h1 "Set 1" 

# Get Handle to set ID 1 belonging to set pool with label "User_Set"
model_handle GetSelectionSetHandle set_h2 "User_Set 1"

This command returns HW_InvalidHandle if the model handle is invalid, PO_InvalidSetID if the selection set ID is incorrect, and HW_AllocFailed if the selection set handle could not be created.
