ShowCmdBar not working...

[lidds]

I am trying to display the menubar using the below code, but this does not seem to work??

Code: Select all

Me.docPreview.Inst.ShowCmdBar("cmdbar.menubar", True)
Me.docPreview.Inst.ShowCmdBar("cmdbar.commenting", True)

Thanks

Hello lidds,

Have you seen the FullDemo behavior? First you will have to Show Command Panes and then use the code that you have provided.

Cheers,

Alex,

I have already done this, sorry I did not post complete code:

Code: Select all

        Me.docPreview.VisibleCmdPanes = CUInt(True)

        Me.docPreview.Inst.ShowCmdBar("cmdbar.menubar", True)
        Me.docPreview.Inst.ShowCmdBar("cmdbar.commenting", True)

        Me.docPreview.Inst.ExecUICmd2(3599)

        Me.docPreview.Inst.FireAppPrefsChanged(PDFXEdit.PXV_AppPrefsChanges.PXV_AppPrefsChange_CustomUI)

I've also tried using the ExecUICmd2 command as well and this does not seem to be working either (3599 = Thumbnail pane (as I'm sure you know))

Yes I have seen the FullDemo project and I am using that a lot to try and learn PDF X-Change

Thanks

Hello Simon,

Me.docPreview.Inst.ExecUICmd2(3599)

Please do not use the numeric ID's directly - they will change from build to build.
To show the Panes use pdfCtl.ShowPane method.

Code: Select all

 Me.docPreview.VisibleCmdPanes = CUInt(True)

This is also wrong - please check the FullDemo's ckShowCmdPanes_CheckedChanged method.

Cheers,
Alex

Alex,

I have looked into this and am now using the following code, but this is still not showing the menubar etc.

Code: Select all

        Me.docPreview.VisibleCmdPanes = CUInt(PDFXEdit.PXV_VisibleCmdPanes.PXV_VisibleCmdPanes_All)

        Me.docPreview.Inst.ShowCmdBar("cmdbar.menubar", True)
        Me.docPreview.Inst.ShowCmdBar("cmdbar.commenting", True)

        Me.docPreview.Inst.FireAppPrefsChanged(PDFXEdit.PXV_AppPrefsChanges.PXV_AppPrefsChange_CustomUI)

Also if I am not meant to use the ID's then how do I show them, I have tried the following but this is not working either. At a bit of a loss with this.

Code: Select all

Me.docPreview.Inst.ExecUICmd("cmd.view.pageThumbnails")

Thanks for your patience and help

Hello Simon,

It would be better if you send me a sample project (without your key).
As for the thumbnails view:

To show the Panes use pdfCtl.ShowPane method.

Cheers,
Alex
