ApplicationEvents.OnActivateView Event

Parent Object: ApplicationEvents

Description

Event that fires just after a view is activated.

Remarks

The OnActivateView event notifies a client when a view is activated. An API View object is equivalent to an Inventor window. When the end-user clicks on a window to work in it, it becomes the active window. The OnActivateView event is fired at this time.
