When selecting Curve Objects, if the curve is an arc that is of type = Solid, then there are no standard points associated with it. How can I give the user the opportunity to select a curve and be able to retrieve the coordinates of the selected curve if it is a "solid" curve?

I really just want to be able to select arcs and circles. Then I wan to use the addAroundPoint method with the arc centers.

Solved. I have found that using the "CoordPick" method gets me what I need.
