ObjectARX and .NET applications

In AutoCAD, AdUi and AcUi classes are used together to allow applications to add tabs to dialog boxes at runtime. AutoCAD has implemented dialog boxes to support tabbed extensions from applications. For example, see the following classes:

• CAdUiTab
• CAcUiTab
• CAdUiTabChildDialog
• CAcUiTabChildDialog
• CAdUiTabMainDialog
• CAcUiTabMainDialog

For .NET applications, example classes are:

• Autodesk.AutoCAD.ApplicationServices.TabbedDialogAction
• Autodesk.AutoCAD.ApplicationServices.TabbedDialogEventArgs
• Autodesk.AutoCAD.ApplicationServices.TabbedDialogExtension
