Methods | Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
 | SetupDockablePane | Method called during initialization of the user interface to gather information about a dockable pane window. |
Example //
// Provider class called by Revit to provide information about the pane
// to embed.
//
public class PaneProvider : IDockablePaneProvider
{
public void SetupDockablePane(DockablePaneProviderData data)
{
//
// SetupDockablePane is called to collect the properties for your pane
// including the WPF FrameworkElement used for your pane.
//
// You have 2 choices when specifying the UI.
// The typical example is to create your element as part of this setup and pass it back as the "FrameworkElement"
// property of the provider Data. Most any container control will work, but we
// we generally suggest using a descendant of the Page class:
data.FrameworkElement = new Page();
//
// A more advanced mechanism is to provided a callback that creates the UI element on demand
// each time the containing view is created. Generally, this approach is needed for UI Elements
// that CANNOT be cached/reused due to some underlying dependancies. A good example of this
// is the WebBrowser control that embeds a browser window, that itself is not reusable:
data.FrameworkElement = null; // Set Cached element to null as we are specifying a creator.
data.FrameworkElementCreator = new BrowserCreator(); // set a creator to call back into.
}
