I'm building my first Addin by converting a macro. I've read Brian Ekins' white paper "Taking the step from VBA to Inv. Addins" (good stuff by the way) In that paper, he he describes creating a file "AUAddin.proj.user" in VB2005 Express. Basically the same name as the project file with a .user extension.
In VB2008 Express, a file by that name is created when the file is saved, the contents of that file contain a lot of commands similiar to those in the white paper. Is there a way to handle this? Can I add the contents from the white paper to the existing file?

Using Inventor 2014 and Vault Basic 2014. It was working this morning but now when Invnetor is opened it automatically logs into Vault and says it is successful but the open from vault icon is greyed out. Similarly when opening a drawing from the vault it used to automatically run and open inventor but now seems to lack the connection. Even when manually opening a drawing that is in the vault by downloading it from the browser and then opening in inventor there is no Vault tab on the browser and all Vault commands except "log out" are greyed out. I think it has something to do with the add-in as well as the Vault group.

When assigning materials to a part in inventor the process is simple, however when one wishes to assign a specific steel type ie ASTM A516 as opposed to just a generic steel then this is where it gets a little more complicated.
This specific steel type will also need to be called up in the parts list relevant to the individual part that it is attached to.
I know that a custom material can be added to the favourites section in the materials library,and this can be done if required.
Have i delved deep enough into the inventor materials library , do the basic steel and others materials ie plastics break down into specific types with their elastic properties,yield stresses etc etc in other words a more comprehensive materials library or is this something that must be created by custom material input.

I've installed Inventor 2012 with local (desktop) content libraries.Everything installs OK except the ANSI content library which throws an install error and stops the install.
I had to uncheck the ANSI library prior to install to get everything else to install.Occurs on both of my machines (Win7 32-bit & 64-bit).I think the ANSI install file is corrupted.
How/where can I get the "installed" ANSI content library file that gets installed into C:ProgramDataInventorContent ?

I randomly get a Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library error when working in Inventor. It points to Inventor.exe and says "This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way. Please contact the application's support team for more information." I have a Quadro video card, Win XP, plenty of RAM, no other programs running in the background.

I have a problem in accessing the library features while doing cable and harness assembly. Whenever I click on the library option the error pops up by saying that " it has been edited by another user or marked as read only". I am not able to import a cable or wire with some modifications.

How to call a addin from vba ? The addin is existing, source code not available :-(
My only idea is to somehow activate the button on the ribbon. Made a dump with the Print Ribbon routine from the online API help:
Tab: CDLIGHT, CDLIGHT.Part.Tab
Panel: iToolbox, CDLIGHT.iToolbox.Part.ToolBar

Below is a link to a github repo that has a code example showing how to embed an IronPython engine inside a C# addin. It is the same as the "Simple AddIn" that comes with the SDK, only with the logic part of the addin factored out into IronPython. I could never find anything on using IronPython with Inventor so I'm posting this for any others that might be interested.
The main reason for doing this is to speed up development time. Edits related to the python code do not require the cycle of shutting down Inventor, compiling, restarting etc. More detail is in the readme. URL....

I would like to make an Inventor AddIn with commands (functions) that can be called from other standalone applications. I have tried to create a COM interface for my AddIn, and that works with rather small effort, but I think I have heard that it should be possible to do this without the COM interface. I would like to avoid COM if possible. if I need to do anything special in the AddIn to make the function visible and how I on client side calls the function.

I have an addin which displays a form, then when I click a button operations are launched. The form is no modal, so I display it, select objects, apply, select objects, apply,... then close the form with another button (form.close).
All functions, but only on the first opened file : I open the file, use the addin, close the form. I open another file, the addin is always loaded, but when I click on the icon to display the form nothing happens... I have to unload the addin and reload it.

I have an Addin with several pieces of functionality that I have been working on for over a year now and have had no problems with it loading. Yesterday I was working on a bug in a function and when I set a break point it was not breaking in the correct location. Possably some miss match between the source and .pdb files. I tried a clean build but still could not get the break point to be correctly aligned with my source code.
I tried to unregister and re-register the Addin with regasm but no luck. I then decided to search the registry for the name of my Addin and was supprized to find thousnads of registry entries. I then decided to clean my registry of all occurances of the Addin name. After removing all occurances of my Addin from the registry my Addin would not load.
I tried putting a message box in the first line of the Activate sub but it never executes. I made the assumption that it was a problem with the registry and changed the GUID value. When I did a rebuild I got the following error:
Error 1 The "UnregisterAssembly" task failed unexpectedly.
System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x80030002): could not be found. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80030002 (STG_E_FILENOTFOUND))

I ran the build again and did not get the error.This Addin is loaded on every CAD workstation in the company using an install program written with the Inno Setup Compiler. I installed the Addin using the installer and the Addin still will not load on my machine.
What is the best approch to debugging an Addin that will not load?When is it necessary to re-register your Addin using regasm?Is it possable that this problem is being caused a problem with the registry?I have read a number of posts regarding problems with Addin's not loading but have not found anything simmilar to this.

I've used vb.net to write two separate addins. I was wondering if there is a way to pass a variable from one addin to another similar to the way shared variables are passed from rule to rule in iLogic.

I have having difficulty getting any addins to load at the moment and am totally stumped as to what the problem is. I have even created a very simple addin from the (C#) template, compiled and registered it and it still will not load up. I get the addin to appear in the Inventor Add-ins dialog ok but it will not load for some reason. I have tried generating various .Net versions 2.0, 3.0 & 3.5 all produce the same result. I have also tried to debug the add-in by getting Visual Studio to launch Inventor but it does not even appear to be loading the add-in. I have dug out some work I did months ago and tried that but it does not work either. Is there a log in Inventor?
I am using C# in Visual Studio 2008 Pro & Inventor 2011.

I am looking for any example to create an addin compatible between versions of inventor and also compatible win between 32 and 64bit.
Today I know create all separate. Thereby generating 4 different files.
Example:
Addin2013_32x.dll
Addin2013_64x.dll
Addin2014_32x.dll
Addin2014_64x.dll

How do update the styles library to keep from getting the Styles Conflict error box. I have used the Standard.dwg file that loaded with Inventor 2012 but everytime I change styles and save the changes in a new template in reverts back to the library definitions.
I used to be able to select 'NO' in the LIbrary option of the Projects Folder but that optiion no longer exists.

We create a greate deal of DLL add ins for Inventor using Microsoft VB.NET. The code security is very important to us. I hear certain program such " Lutz Roeder's Reflector " can reverse engineer the DLL assemblies and get the actual code from it. This would cause concern when we deploy the DLL to various users.
So, is it true that DLL from VB.NET (or C# and C++) is so vulnerable from reverse engineering? if yes, what is any practice to add security to it?

I have an issue where an addin loads once the first time Inventor is opened. If the addin is unloaded and reloaded via the Addins dialog and no documents are open it loads once. If the addin is reloaded while a file is open is reloads twice.
I came to the conclusion it is loading multiple times because the it seems to go through the Activation method of the addin twice. When is the Activation method called during loading an addin?

I cannot debug an addin for Inventor 2012 from Visual Studio 2010 professional on Win7 64.
I started with a new “Autodesk Inventor Addin” project
Set debug “Start external program” to inventor
Added a form and called it from StandardAddInServer.Activate sub
IF I debug from here inventor starts but form does not open. Addin not loaded.
Move *.addin file to Inventor addins
Now when running debug, form opens but breakpoints do not work. VS reports no errors on build.
