NX Passing an argument to a NX Open dll from a toolbar button

When defining a toolbar using Menuscript you can define a button that calls a NX Open dll. Is it possible to pass an argument to the dll?

Solution

Yes it is possible to pass arguments to a dll by putting them in parentheses after the dll name in the ACTION statement. For example:


ACTION ToolbarButtonArgs.dll("arg1", "arg2")

The same applies to journals.
