Good Morning everyone,
I have actually had this issue for quite a while, but Interaction events / Event Handles are causing my Inventor to stop functioning properly. See my code below:
Sub Main Dim oAsm As AssemblyDocument = ThisDoc.Document Dim oSelect As New oSelectClass oSelect.Pick(ThisApplication) If oSelect.oFrame Is Nothing Then Exit Sub Logger.Info(oSelect.oFrame.Name) Logger.Info(oSelect.oModelPoint.X) End Sub Class oSelectClass Private WithEvents oInteractEvents As InteractionEvents Private WithEvents oSelectEvents As SelectEvents Public oFrame As ComponentOccurrence Public oModelPoint As Point Public Sub Pick(oApp As Inventor.Application) oInteractEvents = oApp.CommandManager.CreateInteractionEvents oInteractEvents.StatusBarText = "SELECT FRAME, ESC TO EXIT" oSelectEvents = oInteractEvents.SelectEvents oSelectEvents.AddSelectionFilter(kAssemblyLeafOccurrenceFilter) oInteractEvents.Start() : AppActivate(oApp.Caption) Do While oFrame Is Nothing oApp.UserInterfaceManager.DoEvents Loop oInteractEvents.Stop : oApp.CommandManager.StopActiveCommand oSelectEvents = Nothing : oInteractEvents = Nothing End Sub Private Sub oSelectEvents_OnSelect(oFrames, oDevice, oPoint, oView2D, oView) Handles oSelectEvents.OnSelect oFrame = oFrames(1) oModelPoint = oPoint End Sub End Class
I suspect it has something to do with Interaction events not actually "stopping" when using InteractionEvents.Stop. It causes other interaction events such as editing a sketch to not allow you to change anything, and having the "save sketch" feature greyed out, or being unable to select a component occurrence to open it individually.
If anyone knows anything about this and could fix my nightmare, that would be appreciated. While "oApp.CommandManager.StopActiveCommand" does exit you out, it seems to have more consequences than I thought.
To test this issue, simply run the command a few times, maybe click on items in an assembly. Then try to edit a sketch and see how it doesn't work anymore! This could also have something to do with loops but I doubt it.
