Add-in with MessageBox

Question

Hi there,

how can I write an add-in that shows a Message Box when the project is loaded? I want to give the user some new informations, when he starts a new project?

Thanks,

Karsten

Hi, You can subscribe to the ProjectOpenedEvent (topic9319) to accomplish this. Additionally, the add-in will need to load as soon as Pro launches, so you will have to set the "autoload" attribute to true in the config.daml of the add-in. Code snippets below: In the Module class of the add-in: protected override bool Initialize() { ProjectOpenedEvent.Subscribe(OnProjectOpened); //subscribe to event return base.Initialize(); } private void OnProjectOpened(ProjectEventArgs obj) { MessageBox.Show($"{Project.Current} has opened"); //show your message box } protected override void Uninitialize() { ProjectOpenedEvent.Unsubscribe(OnProjectOpened); //unsubscribe return; }‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ In your config.daml, set the autoload attribute to true so that the add-in loads when Pro launches: ... <modules> <insertModule id="SubscribeProjectLoad_Module" className="Module1" autoLoad="true" caption="Module1"> ...‍‍‍‍ Thanks Uma
