I want to implement my own selection strategy (using `view.pickFromPoint` api), but no matter what I do (even disabling my selection) I always get values populated in the `selectionArray` callback.

Is there a configuration that I haven’t found to turn off the default selection behavior of the seletion manager?

I think I found it:

```auto
viewer.view.operatorManager.remove(OperatorId.Select);

```
