Get ilogic Form Name

Is there a way to get the name of the ilogic form that user has active? I have multiple forms in one documents and want to be able to save the data that the user enters into the current active form. 

Thanks in advance!

Hi Mike,

 

I discussed this question with a colleague in engineering and there is not a mechanism to control or manage forms beyond showing them.  I believe if you configure your forms to be modal, that will force the user to accept data entered into the form before moving forward with the process. (Set the Modal parameter to “True” in the Form Editor). 

 

Another approach would be to use the iLogicForm.Show function to launch a form, capture the name of the form in a variable and then prompt the user with a message box to finish and close the form before moving forward.

 

You could log a request for a way to get the active form on the Inventor Idea station:

Thanks,
