How to disable warnings

[btmsoftware]

Hi all,

In my add-in, I have to open a file.

if there are error messages, I can disable them using the OverrideResult method of the DialogBoxShowing handler I set in my code.

No problems with that.

However, I have some other warning dialogs popping up such as shown

Those don't go through the DialogBoxShowing handler so I can't discard them automatically.

Any idea?

yes, You are right some of the dialog boxes don't go through DialogBoxShowing event

Please refer the following link to close dialog boxes using windows native API:

Hi @btmsoftware ,

Try using the below links

I'll look into that and will let the forum know.

That said, this is a workaround and it would be good that it gets fixed someday. If some dialogs don't behave as they should, that would be a bug in my book....

I looked into the links and yes, it is a workaround.

HOWEVER, I will NOT mark them as solutions because this is a workaround, not a fix. I and others shouldn't have to write a single line of code to solve an issue which is in Revit itself.

Thaks for the help anyways.
