F_ApiSetInt(docId, aframeId, FP_GraphicIsSelected, True);

I do not think this also clears other graphic selections; it very likely
leaves them and is additive.  So you should UNselect any other graphics 
first (unless you just opened the doc and know there are none)...

for (objId = F_ApiGetId(FV_SessionId, docId, FP_FirstSelectedGraphicInDoc);
  objId != 0;
  objId = F_ApiGetId(docId, objId, FP_NextSelectedGraphicInDoc))
    F_ApiSetInt(docId, objId, FP_GraphicIsSelected, False);

Then you can set the one you want with the assurance that it's the only
graphic selection.  I don't know if a text selection would be a problem...
