Open Projects location

[wowrs1608]

Hi,

I am following this to open Projects Location folder https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/inventor-ilogic-and-vb-net-forum/vb-net-get-project-file-path/td-p/80...

But it only opens my Documents folder, not the the folder specified under the Get Started/Projets/Location item.

Which option I should choose?

Inventor 2022 +vb.net.

Cheers,

Pete

There is a difference between the project file location and the project workspace location. I see both answers in the thread you linked. Did you try both options?

I don't recommend you to use undocumented FileLocations property of Application object. Clear solution is to use ActiveDesignProject. Another issue may be in explorer.exe arguments

Here is short sample

Dim activeProject As DesignProject = ThisApplication.DesignProjectManager.ActiveDesignProject

Dim location = System.IO.Path.GetDirectoryName(activeProject.FullFileName)
Logger.Debug(location)

Dim args = String.Format("/e,/root,""{0}""", location)
Logger.Debug(args)

Process.Start("explorer.exe", args)

I have tried both FileOptions & FileLocations.

I'll use the ActiveDesignProject.
