UI Tools in Addin with Dockable Window

Use Visual Studio to create a simple Dockable Windows Forms user interface that runs inside of an Inventor add-in. We assume that you know how to create an Inventor add-in, and that you prepared a UI Tools-ready Inventor design.

The Inventor add-in creates a dockable window, which displays the UI Tools controls.

Workflow:

• Create Solution Project
• Add References to UI Tools Assemblies
• Add Dockable Window
• Add Part Provider in Code
• Build Inventor UI Addin
• Add Custom Button with UI Tools
