Description

Studio-only service; not intended for experience scripts. Manages the selection outline highlights shown in the viewport. It tracks the Selection service and, for each selected instance, creates a highlight with color and thickness matching the current selection style. Highlights are applied to PVInstance objects (excluding the Workspace itself) and recurse into Folder and BasePart containers that have highlightable descendants; selected GuiBase2d UI objects are outlined with a drawn rectangle.

In Team Create, the service also renders other collaborators' selections using each collaborator's assigned color, and removes them when a collaborator goes idle or when a user toggles collaborator selection highlights off.
