thumbnails as System.Drawing.Image

Is there any plan to upgrade Inventor to use System.Drawing.Image for thumbnails instead of the old deprecated stdole.IPictureDisp format?

 

The stdole.IPictureDisp format means that all thumbnails must be converted by convoluted AxHost wrapper class each time before they can be used.

Hi @DynamicObjects,

 

Upgrading Inventor API to System.Drawing.Image for thumbnail is a nice idea.

 

Can you please post this suggestion at idea station using following link?
