Refresh open Table in Arcamp

UrsRichard — Sun, 15 Sep 2013 11:19:14 GMT

I "stamp" a position with the GPS-Tool to the Log-File saved in a filegeodatabase. In the map and the table window I always like to show the actual Log-File. I can refresh the view but not the opened table window. I always have to close and open the table window. I tried to refresh the table but nothing seems to have the effect to reload the actual data from the underlying featureclass (log-file). How can refresh the table window?

Dim pCmdItem As ICommandItem
            Dim pUID As New UIDClass()
            pUID.Value = "{256176AD-0C33-406C-9ED8-9F7AC784A3E3}"
            pCmdItem = My.ArcMap.Application.Document.CommandBars.Find(pUID)
            pCmdItem.Execute()

            Dim tableWindow As ITableWindow3 = New TableWindow
            Dim pSet As ISet = Nothing
            tableWindow.Application = My.ArcMap.Application
            tableWindow.FindOpenTableWindows(pSet)
            pSet.Reset()
            tableWindow = pSet.Next
            While Not tableWindow Is Nothing
                If tableWindow.IsOpen Then                                  
                    tableWindow.TableControl.RemoveAndReloadCache()
                    tableWindow.Refresh()
                End If
                tableWindow = pSet.Next
            End While

I am not sure I have a solution, but I am curious why you didn't use the TableControl Redraw method?

tableWindow.TableControl.RemoveAndReloadCache()
tableWindow.TableControl.Redraw()

Still no success. Are there other solutions refreshing an open attribute table in ArcMap?

            Dim pCmdItem As ICommandItem
            Dim pUID As New UIDClass()
            pUID.Value = "{256176AD-0C33-406C-9ED8-9F7AC784A3E3}"
            pCmdItem = My.ArcMap.Application.Document.CommandBars.Find(pUID)
            pCmdItem.Execute()

            Dim tableWindow As ITableWindow3 = New TableWindow
            Dim pSet As ISet = Nothing
            tableWindow.Application = My.ArcMap.Application
            tableWindow.FindOpenTableWindows(pSet)
            pSet.Reset()
            tableWindow = pSet.Next
            While Not tableWindow Is Nothing
                If tableWindow.IsOpen Then
                    tableWindow.TableControl.RemoveAndReloadCache()
                    tableWindow.TableControl.Redraw()
                    tableWindow.Refresh()
                End If
                tableWindow = pSet.Next
            End While

if you reload cache for the GUI do you get the new rows? Have you tried callind EditChanged on the Table view before removeAndReloadCache? The GUI's ability to refresh the table depends on how the edit was done. In an edit session with an edit operation, the proper messages to say the table was updated should have been sent, it is quite tricky.

I don't get new Rows and EditChange work neither.

           Dim pCmdItem As ICommandItem
            Dim pUID As New UIDClass()
            pUID.Value = "{256176AD-0C33-406C-9ED8-9F7AC784A3E3}"
            pCmdItem = My.ArcMap.Application.Document.CommandBars.Find(pUID)
            pCmdItem.Execute()

            Dim tableWindow As ITableWindow3 = New TableWindow
            Dim pSet As ISet = Nothing
            tableWindow.Application = My.ArcMap.Application
            tableWindow.FindOpenTableWindows(pSet)
            pSet.Reset()
            tableWindow = pSet.Next
            While Not tableWindow Is Nothing
                If tableWindow.IsOpen Then
                    tableWindow.TableControl.EditChanged()
                    tableWindow.TableControl.RemoveAndReloadCache()
                    tableWindow.TableControl.Redraw()
                    tableWindow.Refresh()
                End If
                tableWindow = pSet.Next
            End While

Still no refreshing. But if I reorder the Table with the GUI the attribute table will be reloaded correct. Is there a way to reorder the open attribute table with ArcObjects?

Do you have a query filter on the layer by any chance?

I can reorder the table either with close and reopen again or with resorting the the table. Both ways work only manualy (working with the the mouse) in ArcMap.

Good idea. But there are no query filters.

Can you check if the object tableWindow it self contains right data, but the content on the screen is not refreshed, for forcing to refresh HWND.
I had this problem once, and left it as is, minor benefit for spending a lot of time to solve it.

What do you mean by "forcing to refresh HWND"?

Re: Refresh open Table in Arcamp

DubravkoAntonic — Tue, 01 Oct 2013 19:21:33 GMT

Idea was to use some WIN API to force redrawing the window by using HWND of window.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/dd145002(v=vs.85).aspx

But I searched a bit through the ArcObjects and it seems to me that using ITabeWIndow you just redraw window but your problem is not the window object itself but data inside window.
Data object is presented through TableView, try to get to the ITableControl and call method RemoveAndReloadCache - Lose cache, so the table window is current with the underlying database.

http://help.arcgis.com/en/sdk/10.0/arcobjects_net/componenthelp/index.html#/ITableControl3_Interface/002900000056000000/

Hope this hint will be helpfull to you.

I apologize for bumping an open thread (there are so many without answers in this forum, which is quite disappointing to me), but I am having the same problem.

When I insert a value into a Field within a FeatureClass or a Table of a Feature, it doesn't reflect visually.

How can I refresh my Attribute Table I have open, as shown in my picture, programmatically.

Thank you for the time.

EDIT

And now for my solution, however this will not directly solve the problem of targeting a specific table window:

        public void RefreshOpenWindows()
        {
            ITableWindow pTableWindow = new TableWindowClass();
            pTableWindow.Application = ArcMap.Application;
            ITableWindow3 pTableWindow3 = pTableWindow as ITableWindow3;
            ISet pTableSet = new SetClass();
            pTableWindow3.FindOpenTableWindows(out pTableSet);

            pTableSet.Reset();
            ITableWindow pTableWindowTemp = pTableSet.Next() as ITableWindow;

            while (pTableWindowTemp != null) {
                pTableWindowTemp.Refresh();
                pTableWindowTemp = pTableSet.Next() as ITableWindow;
            }
        }
