Thank you for your answer. Actually I was essentially interested in clicking on a polyline (or may be other graphic elements like Arcs, Rectangles, etc… rather than Axes), which makes it change its color (for grey in my Scilab 6.1.0 on Ubuntu 20.04). I understand that this concerns the java engine rather than the Scilab one. Once you have one such highlighted object, (and if this has been obtained in a “pause” mode, after typing “resume” on the console), I would like the subsequent code to identify which of the object has been highlighted by the click.

Does a function which might be called “get_hilited_entity” exist ? I did not find either in the properties of basic entities like “Polyline” something related to the highlighted state of a polyline… It depends on what highlighted means to you. There is the Scilab's meaning -- as the current axes or figure are the default targets for forthcoming plots -- ; and the java meaning -- as the elements that have the java focus, as when we click on a figure, or in an axes, on a curve, etc. Both meanings do not match: * just clicking an an axes does not make it as the new default target for plotting * making a figure or axes the active ones for Scilab does not move and put the mouse's pointer on them. For the Scilab meaning, gce() is made for your request. twinkle() helps a lot to visually identify the current active entity gce(). Regards
