OpenDocumentFromFile nFlags SOLVED

[jeffp]

Can you tell me where to find the available nFlags for

IPXC_Inst.OpenDocumentFromFile()

I need to make sure there is NoProgross and NoUI popping up when the file is opened.

Hello Jeff,

The Core level does not show any UI stuff like progress etc. As I expect, you are referring to the sample that I sent you earlier. If so, then what you really need is to set the flags of the IPXV_MainFrame::OpenDocFrom method. Here's how you should set them:

Ok. What about this one in the Editor layer. I want to close a document opened in the Editor but skip any dialog that would appear if the document was modified. That is, skip the "Do you want to save changes dialog".

Is there a value for nFlags in this case? Also, is this the right way to close a document from the Editor programatically?

nFlags := 0;
FControl.Frame.View.DocViewsArea.ActiveDocView.Close(nFlags);

Actually, the prompt to save dialog I mention above may be coming from a subsequent call to

FControl.OpenDocFrom()

instead. If so, is there a param to use there to prevent this?

Hello Jeff,

The Close method is well documented along with it's flags:

Sorry, I missed that one. But just to confirm is this the best/only way to programatically close a document from the Control.

FControl.Frame.View.DocViewsArea.ActiveDocView.Close(nFlags);

Hello Jeff,

Well that is a correct way of closing a document. Depends on what you want to do.

FControl.Frame.View.DocViewsArea.ActiveDocView.Close(nFlags);

Seems to work for my purposes, but one interesting thing is that if I call

ADoc.Close(0)

where the ADoc is the CoreDoc of the document in the ActiveDocView above, it does not get closed from the UI. That is, it stays in the view.

You should not use the Core Level to close the Editor Level document.

Got it. Thanks.
