[isocam]

Can anybody help?

Can anybody please tell me is Spyder Python messagebox can be displayed with an icon as well, similar to the VB.net

MsgBox(“Hello WORLD”, MsgBoxStyle.Information, “this is a msgbox”)

Many thanks in advance

Hello Darren,

use the messageBox method of the UserInterface object with its second calling form:

returnValue = userInterface_var.messageBox(text, title, buttons, icon)

Then see these enumerations :

• MessageBoxButtonTypes enumerator
• MessageBoxIconTypes enumerator

Now your example translated in Python:

import adsk.core, traceback

def run(context):

    ui = None

    try:

        app = adsk.core.Application.get()
        ui  = app.userInterface

        ui.messageBox('Hello WORLD', 'this is a msgbox', adsk.core.MessageBoxButtonTypes.OKButtonType, adsk.core.MessageBoxIconTypes.InformationIconType)

        # Or shorter:
        #  ui.messageBox('Hello WORLD', 'this is a msgbox', 0, 2)

    except:
        if ui:
            ui.messageBox('Failed:\n{}'.format(traceback.format_exc()))

Hope it helps
