How to set a tool tip to show up next to and follow the mouse during user interaction. It's the same function that the CommandManager.Pick does?
If it's not a built in function then I guess it's created by a tool tip that gets moved around to follow the mouse on mouse move?
How to use an embedded cursor (mycursor.cur) via the SetCursor command under user interaction events. I can use built in cursors just not able to get it working with my resource.
Sample below throws an error type mismatch.
oInteraction.SetCursor(CursorTypeEnum.kCursorTypeCustom, My.Resources.mycursor)
I have set the build action of the cursor to be embedded.
I've been out of the programming game for a few years. But, using the sample code to place a part or assembly in an assembly by placing it with the mouse should be possible in VBA.

I have the right click on autocad for repeat the last command.
when i launch my prog. --> the prog show a form with a datagridview. I have added a contextMenuStrip in this datagridview.

I am developing a .NET application that integrates with AutoCAD Architecture. In my .NET application, I provide my user with a list of drawing files (.dwg) that they can choose to open. Once my user has selected a file, my application will open the selected drawing in AutoCAD Architecture. In this drawing, the user can click on an object in the drawing.
Can this mouse click event be captured and the object ID for the selected object be returned to my application?
I want to be able to read the left click mouse button coordination all the times . Is it possible ?
View 4 Replies View Relatedi have a problem with an animation in Edge Animate. I try to animate a button which spins 45° on mouse over and back on mouse out. So far no problem. Now i want the button to spin 90° when i click on it and let it stay on this position. I made it spin the 90° but it always spins back on mouse out because the event is still there. Is there any possibility to delet the mouse out event or pause it after clicking on the button. I already tried remove it but without any sucess.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have an assembly file with parts assembled, and I want the user to move and position the assembled part into a position as they desire, and then run VBA to extract coordinates information to do further calculation.
So, what I want to do is creat a VBA code that does the following in sequence
1. VBA runs code to assemble the parts (I can do this)
2. go to the autodesk interface and allow user to manipulate the part
3. when user presses a key (e.g. "enter", "space"), the control returns to VBA
4. VBA run some code to extract the coordinates and do some calculations (I can do this too)
there is something like an input box that waits for the user to click ok, before continuing to run the rest of the coding. But I realise that the input boxes and message boxes do not allow users to work on the model in the background. Since I need users to move/rotate the part to the desired position, I can't simply use input and message boxes.
I am in need to select a profile path using interaction events. How can it be done? Is there any filters available for a Profile Path Selection?
View 9 Replies View Relatedhow to turn off the mouse function when the mouse cursor moves over a feature, such as an edge, point, or surface, and highlights it. I don't want it highlighting the features automatically. I want it to highlight once I click over a feature. My colleagues and I are very distraught by this feature, and will be discontinuing our use of your products that do not allow us to turn this feature off. I'm not sure why you'd want to weed your customer base like this, assuming that I can't turn this option off from the research I've done pouring through the hundreds of complaints related to this issue. I haven't been able to find any posts recently, or regarding Inventor 2013 specificially on this issue, so I was hoping this version had the option of turning it off. Does any of Autodesk's software, such as AutoCAD, have the option of turning it off?
View 5 Replies View RelatedIs there any chance to define an event trigger which runs an iLogic rule when we check out an already open file? Problem is, that we need to synchronize iProperties on check out to clear "Approved by" when Vault State of Part is "under revision"
Vault Parameter "State" is mapped with iProperty "State".
So I want to run the following on check out:
Call ThisApplication.CommandManager.ControlDefinitions.Item("VaultPropertyWriteBack").Execute2(True)
I have addin running inside Inventor. The requirement is that addin should be able to capture the "save as" operation done by the user. Internally, addin stores unique information in the active Inventor file and when user does "Save as", it needs to generate and store the new unique information in the newly created file after Save As. That is the reason it is required to capture the Save As event.
It was possible to capture the "Save" event and there I get Event Timing Enum (kBefore and kAfter). But the file name is same for kBefore and kAfter. So its not possible to identify that its Save As operation.
I'm trying to create a handler for the OnDocumentChange Application event.

The wheel as a pan tool was good the other day, but today when I opened CAD, it did not work anymore, there was no pan tool appearing when holding the wheel of the mouse. It is rather strange!! Then I searched the internet and resetted it by input command " Mbuttonpan---- 1-----enter", But there was no change.

I would expect it to.
Is there a way to set the event trigger of an ilogic file that's already inside of a document? I have code that can automatically create and populate new rules across my assembly parts, but it would be nice to set certain rules to fire every time that part gets saved.
If it can't be accomplished outright from the API, would it be possible to throw an OnEvent (save event in this case) inside of the iLogic code, to get the same results? URL...
Is it possible to place an external iLogic rule under a specific Event Trigger in a file via the API?

I am setting up template .ipts and .idw for my company, and i run Adept to save and store my files. Now i have a code to automatically make a .idw after i save an .ipt. but then after every save (adept saves the .ipt a lot of times) it will ask to make a drawing for the .ipt. well i was wondering if there is a code to put in a rule to disable the event triggers, and place that rule on the trigger after close document. so that the next time i open the document no event triggers will work.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a have a custom ribbon tab on the Assembly and ZeroDoc ribbons, those have pannels and buttons.
The custom buttons have OnExecute event that can have custom actions addded.

Is there a OnExecute or a similar event for the RiboonTab?
So the other day I set up an external rule and created an event trigger to run the rule on save. It worked great ... for a couple days, and then it just stopped working yesterday. I can still run the rule manually and it works fine, but it doesn't seem to run automatically anymore on file save. Yes, iLogic is set to Loaded / Automati in the add-ins panel.
(on the iLogic rule attachment, remove .TXT from the end. I had to add that due to the board's rules about file types.)

How to get the API to add an iLogic Event Trigger but I cannot find the exact code on how to do it.
Is there a Simple way to add an Ilogic Rule (External or Internal) to an event trigger with a VBA Macro or iLogic Rule?
I would like to automate adding an iLogic rule to an Event Trigger when we update our old drawings.
The details of the Rule I am trying to call is as follows:
Rule Name = Save On Close Commands
Event = Before Close
We currently have Inventor 2013 and 2014. If it is not possible in 2013, is it possible in 2014?
get the Rule Added to the Event Trigger
Using Ilogic 2010 I wish to trigger my rule on sheet change. Is this something that can be done? I am using it to zoom the drawing on sheet change.
View 1 Replies View RelatedIm trying to catch the event when the user selects a component in a drawing view using
CommandManager.UserInputEvents.OnContextMenu += UserInputEvents_OnContextMenu;
But it seems that the onselect event only catches selection of drawing views or balloon, annotation etc, but not the component inside the drawing view is this intentional or a bug?
The reason i need to catch this is to make a new context menu action, so i need the selected item. I know i can use SelectionSet, but i want to be able to debug my application as an external application connecting to the running instance before i build it into an addin (saves me a lot of inventor restarts..) And Selection Set does not seem to work when i use it inside an event handler in an external application...
if you can customize / move tool bars & zoom in/out using mouse wheel with AutoCAD 2012 LT ?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have got this code by KEAN WALMSLEY.His code will ask user to select a block and then list all of selected block's attributes. However, I need to tweak his code a little bit and instead of user interaction, the block has to be selected by its name and through my code.
Here is his code (with slight changes to suit my purpose):
rivate Sub ListAttributes()Dim ed As Editor = Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument.Editor Dim db As Database = Host Application Services.WorkingDatabaseDim tr As Transaction = db.TransactionManager.StartTransaction() Try Dim filList As TypedValue() = New TypedValue(0) {New TypedValue(CInt(DxfCode.Start), "INSERT")}Dim filter As New SelectionFilter(filList)Dim opts As
[code]....
Now, I need to change this Sub to a Function as below:
Private Function ListAttributes (blockName As String) As Boolean
The aim is to list all block attributes if the 'blockName' exists in drawing and return True afterwards. Oppositely it should return me False and print nothing to Editor if blockName does not exist.

Create Parcel Segments using the Slide Angle Create command
Create a Feature Line in the same Site that bisects any/all of the Slide Angle Create Segments
Save, close and reopen the drawing
Parcel Segments now terminate at the intersection of the FL
Not sure if this is as designed, and I don't recall this behavior in 2007. We have used FLs to assign elevations to Parcel Segments in 2007, looks like this is no longer possible.

CS2 / WindowsXP - Usually when I DESELECT an image (the marching ants) by keys CONTROL-D, or by right-clicking the drop down DESELECT, isn't there another way to DESELECT by...
... just r-clicking away from the image using the mouse to deselect the marching ants? I'm drawing a blank and I have tons of copy, pasting to do, and my right hand is getting very, very tired. I'm sure I used this function before, I just forgot how to enable this function.
I have been to the EDIT> KEYBOARD SHORTCUTS and PREFERENCES, but nowhere can I find this.
Am I tripping, or is there a way to actually do this?
When I use the "Rectangular Marquee Tool" with my mouse, it is often difficult to do it accurately. Is there an easier way to do it than with the mouse, - can I manually enter the size of my selection .
