Hi, I'm trying to build sample app using PTC sample code as reference. Is it possible and can someone help how to select reference surfaces for skethed extrusion. 

Selection:

pfcSelectionOptions_ptr dirSelopts = pfcSelectionOptions::Create("surface, datum");
dirSelopts->SetMaxNumSels(2);
pfcSelections_ptr dirSels = Session->Select(dirSelopts);

Is this done correctly? How can I use selections here:

localElem.CreateSelectionElem(PRO_E_STD_SEC_PLANE, 3, curModel, 1, 4, newElems);

localElem.CreateSelectionElem(PRO_E_STD_SEC_PLANE_ORIENT_REF, 3, curModel, 1, 2, newElems);

Or is it this simple at all? I'm using Creo 12, but I do not think it matters in this case.
