DockableWindow
Parameters
| ClientId |
String |
Input String that uniquely identifies the client. This is the CLSID of the AddIn in a string form, e.g. "{C9A6C580-3817-11D0-BE4E-080036E87B02}". If supplied, this string is used at Inventor start up time to determine whether the AddIn that created this ribbon tab has since been uninstalled. If so, settings (such as window position, docking state, etc.) associated with the window are deleted. The string is also used to find all the windows to delete when the associated Add-in is unloaded. A “dummy” string or a null string can be specified, but is not recommended. |
| InternalName |
String |
Input String that specifies a unique internal name for the window. This name is never displayed to the user and is only used (in combination with ClientId) to uniquely identify the window. |
| Caption |
String |
Input String that specifies the caption of the window. This should be a localized string. |
