I'm trying to add to a right click menu for an Inventor addin using C#. I'm basing mine off of a VB sample. However, it appears VB allows the add command to be missing values, whereas C# will not allow any empty values. Can soemone suggest what I should be doing to fix this?
The 3 commas in a row are where the error occurs. C# error is simple "argument missing".
ControlDefinitions controlDefs = m_inventorApplication.CommandManager.ControlDefinitions; ButtonDefinition m_featureCountButtonDef = controlDefs.AddButtonDefinition("Add symbol", "symbolAddition", CommandTypesEnum.kQueryOnlyCmdType, "{DFJMQC00-938F-11E1-AFAA-FEFJSDE59B18}", "Count the features in the active part.", "Count Features"); if (firstTime) { try { CommandBars commandBars = m_inventorApplication.UserInterfaceManager.CommandBars; CommandBar commandBar = commandBars.Add("My Macros", "symbolAddition",,, "{DFJMQC00-938F-11E1-AFAA-FEFJSDE59B18}"); commandBar.Visible = true; commandBar.Controls.AddButton(m_featureCountButtonDef); } }
I still don't have this working yet, though I did solve the missing parameter problem.
ControlDefinitions controlDefs = m_inventorApplication.CommandManager.ControlDefinitions; string m_ClientID = "61a179db-d522-4ffa-b78e-7d782595f000"; ButtonDefinition oButton = controlDefs.AddButtonDefinition("Add symbol", "symbolAddition", CommandTypesEnum.kQueryOnlyCmdType, m_ClientID, "Count the features in the active part.", "Count Features"); if (firstTime) { CommandBars commandBars = m_inventorApplication.UserInterfaceManager.CommandBars; CommandBar commandBar = commandBars.Add("My Macros", "symbolAddition", CommandBarTypeEnum.kRegularCommandBar, m_ClientID); commandBar.Visible = true; commandBar.Controls.AddButton(oButton); }
Instead, it now gives me this error when Inventor starts: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/46698764/InventorAddButtonError.png
Any help would be appreciated!
