I have a tool that allows the user to click in the map window and any objects that are found at this point are listed in a dialog window. What I'd like to do is to update the info tool window with the attributes of the object that is currently selected in the dialog window. So as the use selected different objects from the list the info tool window is updated with the associated attributes. Is this possible or do I have to resort to using the message window?
