Small Touchscreen App

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hello All,

I am fairly new to programming for AutoCAD and I need a little direction with this one. I have a small app to write for a touchscreen user and I am not sure if it is possible.

Basically the user has a 3rd party app that prompts for object size in the command line. So he wants a window with the ten numerical keys and an enter button to pop up when certain commands are invoked. Then he wants to be able to use his stylus to press the numerical button(s) then press enter. At the enter key it needs to send the number to the command line as his selection for the size prompt.

So, is this possible? Can a small C# app watch for invoked commands then write a value to the command line without interrupting the command stream?

Thanks in advance,
CBlair

Start AutoCAD and type 'QUICKCALC' on the command line and press ENTER.
