Can you make a selection that fills in a "U" type path?

[ajabon grinsmith]

Hi, there

I want to make a selection like the one shown in the figure from a pathItem of type "U".
It can be either A or B.

Scripting has limited my ability.
- I deleted two pathPoints but did not get two subPathItems. I can only get one of them.
- I tried to delete a pathPoints that interfered with the makeSelection. It was not possible to delete any pathPoint or make it selected for that purpose.

As a last resort, I'm thinking of getting an array of coordinates of only the pathPoints I need and make a selection. However, this would probably be very time consuming.

I need some ideas.
Thanks in advance.

Can't you just go Edit>Define Custom Shape, and then you'll have the paths?

It is possible, but it did not involve fulfilling my purpose.
By the way, I just finished the function!
