Hi,
I'm using the example for the AnchorBarsUsage in the SDK but have run into a glitch that I can't figure out.
If I have a drawing with the stencil window open (I do this through my .net app on an activex drawing control) and I open an anchor bar, the anchor bar opens within the active stencil window. If I first click on the drawing surface the anchor window (properly) opens there. I've verified this through Graham Widemans DocPgWin, which shows a nesting and that my anchor is opening within the stencil window. My line of code to open the anchor window is:
anchorWindow = visioApplication.ActiveWindow.Windows.Add(...)
I think to fix this I need to set the drawing surface as the active window but for the life of me I can't figure out how to get that window? I've tried all of these lines to try and get the window but they all throw an exception of 'invalid window identifier'
visioApplication.Windows.GetFromID(VisWinTypes.visApplication)
visioApplication.Windows.GetFromID(VisWinTypes.visDrawing)
Not sure what's going on?
