I'm trying to get hold of the IApplicationRefreshBitmap interface to force the refresh of a command item's iconin ArcGIS 10, but I cannot figure out what class implements it.
first ESRI mention this in small font at the bottom of a page that they changed the refresh mechanism and commands no longer refreshed automatically.. so they said use IApplicationRefreshBitmap.RefreshBitmap interface which has no class
I even tried to implemnet IApplicationRefreshBitmap in my command figured that ArcMap will detect it and refreshes it but no lock..
a small example will be nice guys you need to work on your documentation and resources it is very poor.
I end up using this method to refresh the bitmap
Dim uid As ESRI.ArcGIS.esriSystem.UID = New UIDClass
uid.Value = "Project.Command1"
Dim pCMD As ICommandItem = m_application.Document.CommandBars.Find(uid)
If _current = 0 Then
MyBase.m_bitmap = _statuslive
_current = 1
pCMD.FaceID = ESRI.ArcGIS.ADF.COMSupport.OLE.GetIPictureDispFromBitmap(_statuslive)
Else
MyBase.m_bitmap = _statusproposed
_current = 0
pCMD.FaceID = ESRI.ArcGIS.ADF.COMSupport.OLE.GetIPictureDispFromBitmap(_statusproposed)
End If
pCMD.Caption = NetworkStatus
pCMD.Tooltip = NetworkStatus
