Hiding commandline through Sendcommand

[Anonymous]

Hi,

Command line window is floating at the bottom even when AutoCAD visible flag is set to false. I have tried sending the command 'Commandlinehide' through sendcommand from c# code but didn't work. I guess it is because waiting for response from prompt window(yes/no). I need to set this command from C# code. Is there any way to hide command prompt from vb or c# other than 'CTRL + 9'?

Thanks,

Shalini.

This works for me.

        [CommandMethod("CC")]
        public void CloseCommandLine()
        {
            Autodesk.AutoCAD.Internal.Utils.CloseCommandLine();
        }

Hi,

Thanks for the reply. What's the assembly(dll) do I need to include to have 'Autodesk.AutoCAD.Internal.Utils.CloseCommandLine()' ?

I am using AUTOCAD 2020.

Thanks,

Shalini.

Just the minimum 3 you would normally reference, AcMgd, AcDbMgd and AcCorreMgd. But it's in AcMgd.

Hi,

I am using 'Autodesk.AutoCAD.Internal.Utils.CloseCommandLine();' as attached in Image1 for closing command line. But command waits for input and after 'enter' it prompts for confirmation dialog box. I need to close it without user input.

Please find the attachements.

Thanks,

Shalini.

I haven't found a way to do it programmatically, but if you look at your image3, you can check the option to always close and you won't be prompted anymore.
