Selection of a line inside of a block doesn't show block's name

Scripting
1

So I have this situation:
2 lines inside of a block “main”
One of these lines is also inside of another block “notch_block”
That block is also inside of “main” as reference.

My python script uses Rhino.Input.Custom.GetObject to prompt user select a line.
When the line inside “notch_block” clicked, it shows selection menu with exact same names for selection block instance segme

One of them will use line in “main” block and another in “notch_block” So as a user it’s 50/50 guess which one is which.

What can I do to identify which selection I want?

Thank you

Hi @vano_artful,

I’m not sure I follow you question or problem. Do you just need to resize the selection menu window - stretch it so you can see more text?

Is there more text to show?
My point is that selection window is pretty much useless, hovering over any options highlights the same line, so it absolutely no way of knowing which “block” each selection is for.
If it’d shown block names, there would be a chance to identify, but currently it’s 100% guess work.
Also, in my experience, the order in this window not the same after undo (I selected option 1, it turned out to be wrong block, I did undo, same selection window opened, I selected option 2, but it turned out to be the same block again, did undo again, third time I selected option 1 and it was the correct block)
