SectionBrowser.select()

Syntax:

.select()

currently accessed section is highlighted.

from neuron import h, gui
soma = h.Section(name='soma')
axon = h.Section(name='axon')

sb = h.SectionBrowser()

SectionBrowser.select_action()

Syntax:

sb.select_action(python_func)

Description:

A Python function is executed when an item is selected (single click or dragging) by the mouse. Before execution, the selected section is pushed. (and popped after the function completes.) A Python function is executed in the object context in which select_action registered it.

Example:

from neuron import h, gui
soma = h.Section(name='soma')
axon = h.Section(name='axon')

def select(sec):
    print 'select:', sec, type(sec)

def accept(sec):
    print 'accept:', sec

sb = h.SectionBrowser()
sb.select_action(select)
sb.accept_action(select)

Note

Python support for select_action() was added in NEURON 7.5.

SectionBrowser.accept_action()

Syntax:

sb.accept_action(python_func)

Description:

A Python function is executed when an item is accepted (double click) by the mouse. Before execution, the selected section is pushed. (and popped after the function completes.) A Python function is executed in the object context in which the accept_action registered it.

Example:

from neuron import h, gui
soma = h.Section(name='soma')
axon = h.Section(name='axon')

def select(sec):
    print 'select:', sec, type(sec)

def accept(sec):
    print 'accept:', sec

sb = h.SectionBrowser()
sb.select_action(select)
sb.accept_action(accept)
