How to close the Editing Request Placed window programmatically

[talalaevd]

I implemented the error handling as follows

public class MyWorksetElementPreprocessor : IFailuresPreprocessor
        {
            public FailureProcessingResult PreprocessFailures(FailuresAccessor failuresAccessor)
            {
                IList<FailureMessageAccessor> failList = new List<FailureMessageAccessor>();
                failList = failuresAccessor.GetFailureMessages();
                foreach (FailureMessageAccessor failure in failList)
                {
                    FailureDefinitionId failID = failure.GetFailureDefinitionId();
                    if (failID == BuiltInFailures.EditingFailures.OwnedByOther)
                    {
                        failuresAccessor.ResolveFailure(failure);
                        return FailureProcessingResult.ProceedWithRollBack;
                    }
                }
                return FailureProcessingResult.Continue;
            }
        }

private static Transaction MakeTransaction(Document doc, string name, bool useFailureHandlingOpts)
        {
            Transaction t = new Transaction(doc, name);
            if (useFailureHandlingOpts)
            {
                FailureHandlingOptions opts = t.GetFailureHandlingOptions();
                opts.SetClearAfterRollback(true);
                opts.SetFailuresPreprocessor(new MyWorksetElementPreprocessor());
                t.SetFailureHandlingOptions(opts);
            }
            return t;
        }

public bool UpdateProjectEdit(Document _doc, TreeView _treeview, string _name)
        {
            bool result = false;
            TreeNode elms = _treeview.SelectedNode;
            Element elm_rename = (Element)elms.Tag;
            TransactionStatus t_status;
            using (Transaction t = MakeTransaction(_doc, "Rename element " + elm_rename.Name, true))
            {
                t.Start();
                elm_rename.Name = _name;
                t_status = t.Commit();
            }
            if (t_status != TransactionStatus.RolledBack)
            {
                result = true;
            }
            return result;
        }

But when processing a borrowed item error, this window appears

I do not know yet how to close this window automatically. Does anyone have any advice?

I tried to use EventHandler <DialogBoxShowingEventArgs> but the specified window is not intercepted in any way. In the log there is an entry about the event Jrn.PushButton "Modal, Hosted editing request, Dialog_Revit_CheckEditabilityGrants", "Close, IDOK".

What can Dialog_Revit_CheckEditabilityGrants mean and where can I use it?

Dear Дмитрий,

Thank you for your query.

All that I can say about handling dialogues and failures is covered by The Building Coder topic group 5.32:

If all else fails, you can always use the Windows API to simulate mouse clicks and all other required user input:

In this case, with one single button to click, that should be fairly easy.

You can also submit a request to the Revit Idea Station for future versions of the Revit API to support this action directly.

I hope this helps.

Best regards,

Jeremy

Thanks Jeremy.
I'll have to use the Windows API to simulate a user clicking a button.
