Hello!
I used what Philippe helped me with in a previous topic to get most of the work of adding custom AcDbFields, but i have one more (hopefully final) problem.
I use either the field code or insert a field through the field dialog box. Now if i double click the AcDbField, the field dialog box opens and the "*unknown" field is selected. What do i have to do for the dialog to go directly to that specific field in the dialog?
Thanks

Hi Bica,
Sorry for the delay.
I do not see this behavior with the TextFileField sample. On double click the field dialog opens with the right category and field selected.
Here is a recording of the steps that I am trying. Can you please let me know if there is any thing different from what you are trying ?

I do not think there is any additional step to get it working while double clicking on the field. On double-click the "CAcFdUiFieldDialogHook" derived class should get its method called just as it gets called during field creation.

Balaji
Hello.
No problem about the delay, there's a lot of work, i was never held back.
I actually never ran the original sample Philippe provided, but since you said it did work in your case i started looking for differences.
Turns out, i missed adding a valid evaluator Id, it was one character off. So when the DialogHook was calling GetEvaluatorIds, i was adding the wrong id (TFEVALID in our case).
So now it works. I should have been more careful and then i wouldn't have wasted you time.
Thanks.
