Add Inventor builtin pulldown to DockableWindow or UserForm

[Ralf_Krieg]

Hello

Is it possible to display an builtin command (Button or Pulldown) of Inventor in a dockable window or a user form? For example, in the sketch environment, in the "Format" panel are 3 pulldowns for Line Type, Line Color and Line Weight. Is there a way to display them in a separate window or form or something other that can be placed outside the ribbon?

I don't think there is a native way to do that. But you can create your own forms in iLogic @WCrihfield   wroten an article about that "Create a Windows Form, Display It, Get Instant Feedback From Your Choices".

But in a production environment, I would create a DLL that can show and handle a user form. You can use Visual Studio for that which, in my opinion, is easier. Also, it is easier to reuse.  And if you are creating a DLL the step to an addin is then also easy to do.

Hello

And if and how would a built in command button like the line color pulldown of the sketch environment displayed in an addin user form? I can create easily my own buttons within this, but I've no idea how to integrate built in (if possible). If this would be possible, I don't need to rebuild this pulldown on my own with all it's functionality.
