NX Journal - Hiding "Work in Progress" Dialog Box

[jmarkus]

Does anyone know how to hide the "Work in Progress" dialog box from within an NX Journal (NX7.5)? My journal uses "createimage" to capture the graphics screen and works fine under Windows 7, but apparently the Windows XP graphics environment doesn't behave the same way and captures the "Work in Progress" dialog box (and for that matter, any raised window over the graphics window) when capturing the image.

I would rather not have to tell my users "if you are using XP then move your 'Work in Progress' indicator away from the graphics screen and don't touch anything while the journal is running. Windows 7 users don't have to worry about such things..."

Thanks,
Jeff

What option are you using to capture the image ?
, File-export xxx..., Edit - Copy display, render.. etc ?

Maybe a change of option can get rid of the problem.

I'm using the "createimage" function call from a journal.

Namespaces ► NXOpen.UF ► UFDisp ► CreateImage(String, UFDisp.ImageFormat, UFDisp.BackgroundColor)

If you are working on WINDOWS with two screens then you can have it so they show up on the other screen.
