AVAppGetToolByName

Hi
I use the AVAppGetToolByName API in my plugin and have found the list of tool names in the API Overview documentation but it seems that some tools are missing from this list.
I'd like to select the "Object" tool (Tools > Advanced editing > Object)
butu I can't find it in the list, is it a thorough list ?
Thanks

Alright Thank you Aandi, it works, I'm now able to select the TouchUp Object Tool.
But I still have a problem : when I go over an annotation with this object tool i don't have the little black arrow appearing and when i click the annotation I've got an unhandled exception in Acrobat and it closes itself.

  • AVAppGetToolByName not working

    Hi,
    I'm developing an Acrobat 11 plugin using the Acrobat 11 SDK. I need to use the pencil/Ink tool in the plugin.
    I'm using the below code to do it.
    AVTool tool = AVAppGetToolByName (ASAtomFromString("Ink"));
    AVAppSetActiveTool (tool, true);
    But the tool is not getting set. On inspection, I found out that AVAppGetToolByName is returning null.
    But there are certain documents on which it is working perfectly.
    This is one of the documents on which its not working, http://www.newfangled.com/stuff/contentmgr/files/2/4948464a80b6d281a268afd22ca1ac73/chapte r/pdftest.pdf
    Please help me find out whats going wrong.
    Thanks,

    Hi lrosenth,
    The tool is working manually. And the tool name is also correct(since its working on some documents).
    But once I select the tool manually(and then select some other tool), the above code works fine.
