hi!
is it possible to close the xref-Panel by code and how?
regards Jan
If the XREF palette is floating, the example code below should close it. However, if it is docked, the problem is not so simple.
You can convert it to VB here:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using Autodesk.AutoCAD.Runtime;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;
using WinApi.Windows;
namespace CloseXRefPaletteExample

{
const int WM_CLOSE = 16;
[CommandMethod("XREFCLOSE", CommandFlags.Session)]
public static void XrefCloseCommand()
{
IntPtr handle = WindowFinder.FindThreadWindow(null, "External References");
if(handle != IntPtr.Zero)
NativeMethods.PostMessage(handle, WM_CLOSE, IntPtr.Zero, IntPtr.Zero);
}
}
}
namespace WinApi.Windows
{
public class WindowFinder: WindowEnumerator
{
string classname;
string text;
IntPtr result = IntPtr.Zero;
public WindowFinder(string classname, string text)
{
if(classname == null && text == null)
throw new ArgumentException("Requires classname or text to be non-null");
this.text = text;
this.classname = classname;
}
protected override bool OnWindow(IntPtr handle)
{
if(!string.IsNullOrEmpty(classname))
{
if(string.Equals(classname, GetWindowClass(handle), StringComparison.CurrentCultureIgnoreCase))
{
if(!string.IsNullOrEmpty(text))
{
if(string.Equals(text, GetWindowText(handle), StringComparison.CurrentCultureIgnoreCase))
{
result = handle;
return false;
}
}
}
}
else if(!string.IsNullOrEmpty(text))
{
if(string.Equals(text, GetWindowText(handle), StringComparison.CurrentCultureIgnoreCase))
{
result = handle;
return false;
}
}
return true;
