ClickRectScope()

Awaits user input from the system pointer, accepts a rectangle whose center is a valid world point, and returns a scope.

scope = ClickRectScope()

The scope calculated from the indicated rectangle.

Click RectScope() is similar to ClickScope(), but requires that the center of the user-indicated rectangle be a valid world point (on the earth). Click RectScope() is more appropriate than ClickScope() to get input for the location of a rectangle annotation.
This function should be called only from a macro that is activated from the menus, or from a tool in a toolbox or toolbar. Calling it from any other type of dialog box often causes confusion about which window is active (the dialog box, versus the map).
