Post by prasantha »

Hi ,
I have opened couple of document in multiple tabs.and when user close an document except the active document , I am trying to access the file path of the document closed(not the active document). ( and document closing). i tried to find any property inside the event parameter at before_closing or document closed events, But I could not find any such property.
Can you please let me know how can i get the closing or closed document file path ? or is it possible to acess the tab index which is going t close or closed at the above events , if so i can retrieve the related document information

Hello prasantha,

You would then probably need to listen for this event:
https://sdkhelp.pdf-xchange.com/view/PX ... eforeClose
And handle the closing of the file including e.g. grabbing it's path as needed!

Kind regards,
Stefan

In your implementation of IEventHandler::OnEvent you need to use the pFrom argument. For e.document.beforeClose event you need to cast it to the IPXV_Document type...
