ActiveDoc Property (ISldWorks)

Gets the currently active document.

.NET Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration) 
ReadOnly Property ActiveDoc As System.Object
Visual Basic (Usage) 
Dim instance As ISldWorks
Dim value As System.Object
 
value = instance.ActiveDoc
C# 
System.object ActiveDoc {get;}
C++/CLI 
property System.Object^ ActiveDoc {
   System.Object^ get();
}

Property Value

Model document or Nothing or null if the operation fails

Example

Remarks

If no document is active, then Nothing or null is returned. This is a read-only property.

The currently active document cannot be the document that is being edited by the end-user. For example, you can use in-context editing to modify an assembly component. The currently active document is the assembly, but the edit target is the assembly component. For assemblies, you can determine the edit target by using the IAssemblyDoc::GetEditTarget or IAssemblyDoc::IGetEditTarget2 method.
