Error when try to view image files (Tiff or BMP) SOLVED

[visual approvals]

Hi Guys

windows 10 ,framework 4.6.1 , win 64 dll ver 6.0.319.0

Im using the following to view a Tiff or bmp file in the viewer but am getting errors

public void OpenPdfDoc(string pFileName, string Display = "All")
{
if (pFileName != "")
{
try
{

axPXV_Control1.Inst.Settings["Docs.AutoSyncDocPanesLayouts"].v = false;
axPXV_Control1.Inst.FireAppPrefsChanged(PDFXEdit.PXV_AppPrefsChanges.PXV_AppPrefsChange_Documents);

PDFXEdit.IPXV_MainFrame secondMainFrame = axPXV_Control1.Inst.MainFrm[SupportClass.FrameCount];
secondMainFrame.OpenDocFrom(pxcInst.OpenDocumentFromFile(@CurrentPdfFilePath.ToString(), null));

if (axPXV_Control1.Doc != null)
{ PageCount = axPXV_Control1.Doc.CoreDoc.Pages.Count;
axPXV_Control1.Doc.ActiveView.Panes.Show(axPXV_Control1.Doc.ActiveView.PageThumbsView);


PDFXEdit.IUIX_ScrollContainer scrollContainer = GetParentScrollContainer(axPXV_Control1.Doc.ActiveView.PageThumbsView.Obj);
PDFXEdit.IUIX_CmdLine line = scrollContainer.CmdPaneTop[0];
PDFXEdit.IUIX_CmdBar bar = line[0];
PDFXEdit.IUIX_CmdItem item = bar.FindFirstItemByCmdName("cmd.delete");
item.Delete();

axPXV_Control1.Doc.ActiveView.Panes.Hide(axPXV_Control1.Doc.ActiveView.PagesView);

}

// axPXV_Control1.Inst.ExecUICmd("cmd.zoom.level.fitPage");


}
catch (Exception ex)
{
ShowErrorMessage(System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.GetHRForException(ex));
}
}
}

The error occurs at secondMainFrame.OpenDocFrom(pxcInst.OpenDocumentFromFile(@CurrentPdfFilePath.ToString(), null));
ex is Exception from HRESULT: 0x82140002



PDF files dont cause any issues

Hello visual approvals,

The exception occurs, because you are trying to open the image file on the core level and then pass the IPXC_Document to the editor's level. Only the editor's level uses converters in the OpenDoc methods. In your case, try using this method:

Thanks for the reply,
I did spend some time experimenting with the method you advise but could not come to grips with it in a C# context

Are you able to provide some sample code in C# i could work from
Thanks

Hello Andre,

You simply should change this:

Code: Select all

secondMainFrame.OpenDocFrom(pxcInst.OpenDocumentFromFile(@CurrentPdfFilePath.ToString(), null));

To this:

Code: Select all

secondMainFrame.OpenDocFromPath(@CurrentPdfFilePath.ToString(), null);

Cheers,
Alex
