Call or set custom parallel environment from VB.Net API button On_Execute cmd

[Anonymous]

I'm having a little difficulty finding a code example in VB.Net to call or set my Add-in environment from a custom button placed on the zerodoc ribbon. The button command when clicked loads an assembly template and I want to include a call in the button On_Execute code to automatically set my parallel environment rather than have the user manually select the "Environments - <Custom Environment Name>" from the Environments ribbon tab.

The final aim of this command will be to set the custom environment automatically, only when a document that has a custom parameter embedded within it is flagged as true.

I cant seem to get the object browser prototypes or the API help examples to work at all......not sure why so I'm stuck

Cheers dudes

Solved this one by using the OverrideEnvironment property ,

objMachDoc = mobjInventorApp.ActiveDocument

objMachDoc.EnvironmentManager.OverrideEnvironment = objOverideEnv

job done - just need this in a conditional statement to apply it only when a custom property in the document is flagged.
