Ommiting prompt on RotateCW and RotateCCW commands

[marcoscmonteiro]

I would like to ommit prompt when I first execute RotateCW or RotateCCW commands. The message displayed does not make sense for my application because it does not show PDFXChange menu items.

This prompt does not raise PXCVA_OnDisplayPrompt event so I can't change message or ommit it (I attach a image of prompt)

Any way?

Can you try passing the PXCVA_NoUI flag to the Flags argument?

Here is the enum:

Code: Select all

enum PXCVA_Flags
{
PXCVA_NoApply       = 0x00000001,
PXCVA_NoUI          = 0x00000002,
PXCVA_GetNamed      = 0x00000004,
PXCVA_Sync          = 0x00000008,
PXCVA_OutArgs       = 0x00000010,
};

Not works. The prompt still appears with PXCVA_Flags.PXCVA_NoUI.

What is the text of the prompt? Is it the warning about changes not taking effect unless the file is saved?

If not, could you tell us the text you receive in the prompt?

If yes, I will find out if there is a way to disable it.

Also, if you could post the call you are using to initiate the RotateCW command that would be helpful.

Command I'm calling

Code: Select all

Dim vDataOut as Object = 0
pPDFXChangeAX.DoVerb("", "ExecuteCommand", "RotateCW", vDataOut, PDFXCviewAxLib.PXCVA_Flags.PXCVA_NoUI)

'or 

pPDFXChangeAX.DoVerb("", "ExecuteCommand", "RotateCCW", vDataOut, PDFXCviewAxLib.PXCVA_Flags.PXCVA_NoUI)

The message displayed is in the first post attach as a png file. I'm transcribing it below:

Note: this function will rotate pages for this work session only - no changes are saved to the original file, to save selections permanently, use the 'Rotate Pages' function under the 'Document' Menu.

Same message is displayed when I use keyboard shortcuts CTRL+SHIFT+PLUS or CTRL+SHIFT+MINUS

It would be nice if there is a solution that does not show the prompt even if I use a keyboard shortcut or programming commands

Hi marcoscmonteiro,

Some prompts will fire even if the NoUI flag is on unless you specifically turn them off

This one in particular is
"Prompts.RotatePagesViewWarn",(simple boolean, default value is "true")

To turn it off use:

Code: Select all

pPDFXChangeAX.SetProperty("Prompts.RotatePagesViewWarn", "false", 0)

Please check Vasyl's post here:

Where he lists some more of these undocumented prompts.

Best,
Stefan
