Add-in load order

Is there a trick to dictating the 'correct' order for addins to load?

The final intention is to have multiple command buttons in a custom ribbon panel, in the correct order

 

Cheers

Hi Matt,

I think there is a relation between the loading sequence and the GUID of the add-in.

Smaller GUIDs loads first.

I have the info from this post (German).

Did you find the solution?
I try to load my add in when the Vault add in has already been loaded.

Hi Matt,

you can try an other way.

Add you commands in the ApplicationEvents.OnReady

"This event fires (only once) after Inventor has completed its initialization. This includes initialization of all the Add-ins loaded at startup"
