Return Value

This method can perform drawing an image (supplied by the caller) as an in-canvas control in the view(s). The control can react on click by invoking a callback defined in [!:Autodesk::Revit::UI::ITemporaryGraphicsHandler::OnClick(TemporaryGraphicsCommandData)]. The caller can use the returned index to update the control (changing image/location), delete and change visibility (hide/unhide) in response to any events later.
