gfx_selection.py

Graphical entities have an active selection. In essence this selection is a subset of atoms, residues, chains and bonds. The active selection is displayed with a green halo around the structure. The selection can be set either programmatically by using Entity::SetSelection() or interactively by using the selection tool.
