The Ed.Editor.nEntSelP() function does not accept keywords

[gswifort]

Is this expected behavior? The Autolisp equivalent accepts keywords.

>>> Ed.Editor.initGet(0, "Kword")
PyEd.PromptStatus.eOk

>>> Ed.Editor.nEntSelP("\nSelect an object or enter a keyword: ")

Select an object or enter a keyword: K
Invalid selection!
Expects a single object.

I'll test when I'm back home next week. The docs say it should work. Note, that error message doesn't come from PyRx, have you tried it on another platform?

Ehh.. It works on Autocad 2026

I'll report it when I am back

works for me

from pyrx import Ap, Db, Ed, Ge


@Ap.Command()
def doit():
    try:
        Ed.Editor.initGet(0, "Yes No")
        ps, _, _, _, _ = Ed.Editor.nEntSelP("\nSelect or [Y/N]: ")
        if ps == Ed.PromptStatus.eKeyword:
            print(Ed.Editor.getInput())
    except Exception as err:
        print(err)

@Ap.Command()
def doit2():
    try:
        Ed.Editor.initGet(0, "Woohoo")
        ps, _, _, _, _ = Ed.Editor.nEntSelP("\nSelect or [Woohoo]: ")
        if ps == Ed.PromptStatus.eKeyword:
            print(Ed.Editor.getInput())
    except Exception as err:
        print(err)

It's working for me now too... I don't know, maybe my app was in some undesirable state related to other explorations. Sorry for wasting your time.
