Returns the hotspot of the selection. The hotspot of the selection is the reference point for the transformations of the selected objects.

syntaxSyntax:
DlxSelection.GetHotspot()

Return Value

If the operation is successful, it returns a DlxPoint with the coordinates; otherwise it returns an invalid point. Use IsValid to verify that the point is valid.
