HI
I am using the below journal to move objects and assembly components to respective layers. And this journal is combined with objects and assembly components.

If a part does not have any assembly components means, it is showing an pop up box that there is no assembly components. Can you help me in avoiding that popup...

Hi cowski,

I want to merge this code to other journals which i am using..How to do this ?

It is enough to ask "Yes or No" no need to open any listing window..Please give me the code for this, so that i will merge with other journal codes.

Code: 
Option Strict Off
Imports System
Imports NXOpen
Imports NXOpenUI
 
Module Module1
 
    Sub Main()
 
        Dim theSession As Session = Session.GetSession()
		Dim lw as ListingWindow = theSession.ListingWindow
        Dim theUISession As UI = UI.GetUI
        Dim response As Integer
        Dim answer As String = "" 
 
		lw.Open
 
        response = theUISession.NXMessageBox.Show("Question", NXMessageBox.DialogType.Question, "Move objects to layer?")
        '1 = Yes
        '2 = No
 
        If response = 1 Then
			'code to run in response to "yes" answer
            answer = "Yes"
			lw.WriteLine("moving objects from layer X to layer Y...")
        Else
			'code to run in response to "no" answer
            answer = "No"
        End If
		
		lw.WriteLine("user answered: " & answer)
  
 
    End Sub
 
 
    Public Function GetUnloadOption(ByVal dummy As String) As Integer
 
        'Unloads the image when the NX session terminates
        GetUnloadOption = NXOpen.Session.LibraryUnloadOption.AtTermination
 
    End Function
 
End Module

Thanks & Regards,

Yeah I tried,

But, it is showing an error like "declaration expected".

I tried in this way:



Dim theUISession As UI = UI.GetUI
Dim response As Integer
Dim answer As String = ""



response = theUISession.NXMessageBox.Show("Question", NXMessageBox.DialogType.Question, "Move objects to layer?")
'1 = Yes
'2 = No

If response = 1 Then
'code to run in response to "yes" answer
answer = "Yes"

Else
'code to run in response to "no" answer
answer = "No"
End If


Thanks & Regards,
Sam

Is that your entire journal?
If so, at a minimum, you'll need to add the imports statements, the module declaration (and end module), and the Sub Main/End Sub statements.

i.e. take the code from your post of 8 May 13 6:03, and delete the 4 lines that reference the "lw" object.

Yeah, it is working now.

But, Journal is running even if we click on answer "no". It should exit or to stop running journal when we click on "no". Please suggest how to proceed that.

Thanks & Regards,
Sam

Code: 
If response = 1 Then
'code to run in response to "yes" answer
answer = "Yes"

Else
'code to run in response to "no" answer
answer = "No"
[highlight #FCE94F]Exit Sub[/highlight]
End If

The exit sub statement will exit whatever subroutine it is called from. If you are in Sub Main (as in your example) it will exit the journal entirely.

Hi Cowski,


This is the Entire Code for journal:

after running this code, If we click on undo button, it is not coming to the previous state. Why ?
What changes to be done to avoid it.

If you want to undo the actions of the journal, you will need to set an undo mark at the desired location. Add the following code before your journal starts moving stuff.

Code: 
Dim markId1 As Session.UndoMarkId
markId1 = theSession.SetUndoMark(Session.MarkVisibility.Visible, "Move object layers")

Hi cowski,

Can you tell me what type of skills are required for customization of NX.

Hi cowski,

This is another issue..
The below journal made by us with many trail and errors, by picking one sample vb program from GTAC Solution centre.

As, I already posted with thread name like "Pick a point"(
As of know this journal is asking to pick a point in the form of dialog box. But, it is not showing any message like pick a point or specify the point.
Another issue is, this dialogue box have two options like ok and cancel. Even if we click on cancel it is importing the label at origin of drawing sheet.

Please correct the journal in the following ways:

1. we need a message in that dialogue box like "specify a point"
2. if we click on the cancel button it should not import the label
3. If the user executed unfortunately again the same journal it should show some message like already exists. This is just to avoid multiple imports.
