Windows Form deactivates Space Claim interface

Ansys Staff

I have an C# addin for Space Claim with a Windows Form interface. The user is then asked to select a SPEOS object and press Ok but this requires being able to interact with the interface.

Is there any way I can activate SC interaction behind the form so I can select the object.

Have you found a solution for this? I have done this using an ACT app that launched a WinForms UI and interacts with the Spaceclaim window. I think it would be similar for an AddIn as well. @SeanPatterson

Thanks @Rajesh Kumar Meena . Yes a solution was found. This unlocked the background :        {            Window window = Window.ActiveWindow;            DocObject sceneSpace = window.Scene.Root;            var dialog = new UI_Extensions.ImportPointCloud();            dialog.Show();        }

        {
            Window window = Window.ActiveWindow;
            DocObject sceneSpace = window.Scene.Root;

            var dialog = new UI_Extensions.ImportPointCloud();
            dialog.Show();

        }
